A heavy, display-oriented serif with pronounced vertical stress and sharply tapered, flared terminals that read as wedge-like serifs rather than slabs. Strokes show strong thick–thin contrast, with crisp joins and pointed, triangular finishing on many verticals. Counters are relatively open for the weight, while curves feel sculpted and slightly angular, giving bowls and shoulders a chiseled rhythm. Proportions are expansive and headline-friendly, with broad capitals and sturdy lowercase; numerals match the robust color and contrast, keeping a consistent, commanding texture in lines of text.
Best suited to headlines, decks, and display typography where its sculpted contrast and flared endings can be appreciated. It can work well for magazine/editorial titling, book or album covers, posters, and brand marks that need a traditional-but-dramatic serif voice.
The overall tone is assertive and ceremonial, blending classical serif cues with a more dramatic, engraved-like sharpness. It conveys confidence and formality, with a slightly theatrical edge that suits attention-grabbing typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif presence with extra impact, using flared terminals and crisp contrast to heighten drama and improve recognizability at display sizes.
The flaring at stroke ends creates a distinctive silhouette at large sizes, and the strong contrast produces a lively sparkle along curves and diagonals. In longer settings the dense weight and wide stance create a bold typographic color, making spacing and size choices important for comfort.
