A high-contrast serif with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered, wedge-like terminals that read as sharp, beaked serifs. Curves are full and slightly compressed, with tight apertures and a lively, somewhat irregular rhythm across letters. The design shows calligraphic influence in its swelling stems and flared joins, while caps keep a strong vertical stance and generous interior counters. Numerals and lowercase echo the same dramatic stress and sculpted terminals, producing a dense, display-oriented texture in lines of text.
This face is best used for headlines, posters, packaging, and editorial display where its high contrast and pointed terminals can carry personality. It can also work for short passages such as pull quotes or section openers, but its dense color and decorative construction make it less suited to long-form body text at small sizes.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, evoking a vintage, print-driven sensibility. Its sharp terminals and swelling strokes give it a confident, slightly eccentric voice that feels suited to expressive, attention-seeking typography rather than quiet neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver an expressive, attention-grabbing serif with a calligraphic backbone and ornamental, beaked serifs. It prioritizes distinctive texture and dramatic stroke contrast to create a memorable, vintage-leaning display voice.
In text settings the dark color and spiky terminals create a distinctive sparkle, with noticeably varied letter widths that add movement. The strong contrast and small details suggest it will be most comfortable at larger sizes where the beaks and bracketed transitions can be clearly seen.
