A heavy, high-contrast-in-spirit but largely even-stroke display serif with sharp, faceted terminals and wedge-like serifs. Letterforms are built from straight strokes and clipped corners, producing a distinctly chiseled, polygonal silhouette rather than smooth curves. Counters tend to be compact and squarish (notably in O, D, and 0), and joins are crisp with strong vertical emphasis. The lowercase follows the same rigid geometry, with single-storey forms and hard-edged bowls, giving the full set a consistent, carved-in-blocks rhythm.
Best suited to display settings where its carved, angular detailing can be appreciated—headlines, posters, title treatments, branding marks, and packaging. It can also work for short, emphatic pull quotes or signage-style compositions where a strong, historic mood is desired.
The overall tone is gothic and ceremonial, evoking medieval signage, engraved lettering, and old-world institutions. Its angular cuts and dense texture read as forceful and authoritative, with a slightly ominous, dramatic flavor that suits stylized or narrative-driven design.
The font appears designed to translate blackletter and engraved inscription cues into a sturdy, geometric display serif, prioritizing impact and a cohesive chiseled motif across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
The design creates a tight, dark texture in paragraphs, with prominent triangular notches and wedge terminals that become more apparent at larger sizes. Numerals share the same octagonal, cut-corner logic, helping maintain a uniform voice across headings, initials, and number-heavy lockups.
