A heavy, display-oriented serif with strongly flared stroke endings and sharp, beak-like terminals that give many forms a carved or incised look. Stems are thick and steady, with minimal modulation, while curves are broad and compact, producing a dense, sturdy rhythm. The uppercase has wedgey, slightly calligraphic notches at key joins, and the lowercase carries the same chiseled terminal language with rounded counters that stay fairly tight. Numerals are robust and sculpted, matching the angular, tapered finishing seen across the alphabet.
Best suited to display sizes for headlines, posters, packaging, and identity work where its flared terminals and carved texture can be appreciated. It can also serve well for short passages like pull quotes or chapter openers, especially in historically themed or dramatic contexts.
The overall tone feels medieval-adjacent and ceremonial—ornate without becoming fully gothic—suggesting banners, crests, and storybook titling. Its sharp terminals and swelling ends add drama and a hint of antiquity, while the solid weight keeps it assertive and confident.
The letterforms appear designed to evoke a carved, heraldic sensibility while staying bold and readable, using flared endings and pointed terminals to create personality and texture. The intent seems to balance medieval or vintage cues with contemporary display clarity for impactful titling.
The design favors strong silhouettes and high impact over delicate detail; interior spaces are relatively small, so it reads best when given room to breathe. The terminal shapes create a distinctive texture in words, with many letters ending in pointed, outward flicks that can add sparkle at larger sizes.
