A heavy, sculpted serif with pronounced wedge-like, flared stroke endings and compact, bracketed serifs. The letterforms show sturdy verticals, rounded bowls, and crisp interior counters, with terminals that taper into sharp points or triangular cuts, giving many strokes a carved, chiseled finish. Curves are smooth but tightly controlled, and joins often form subtle notches that add texture and rhythm at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals carry strong presence, while lowercase maintains robust stems and clear apertures for a solid, print-forward silhouette.
Best suited to headlines, title treatment, and short editorial copy where the flared terminals and wedge serifs can be appreciated. It can also work well for branding, packaging, and signage that needs a classic yet punchy serif voice, especially in larger sizes where the carved details remain clean.
The overall tone feels traditional and emphatic—like display typography rooted in bookish or institutional contexts, but with a slightly theatrical edge from the sharpened, flared details. It reads as confident and formal, with a vintage editorial flavor that suggests gravitas and headline authority.
The font appears designed to deliver a strong, traditional serif impression with added visual bite, using flared terminals and sharp wedge serifs to increase presence and give the text a distinctive, engraved-like texture. The emphasis is on display clarity and character rather than quiet neutrality.
The design’s distinctive personality comes from the recurring pointed spurs and flares on horizontals and diagonals (notably in letters like E, F, T, V/W, and the two-storey forms), which creates a crisp, high-impact texture across words. In text lines, the dense weight and animated terminals produce strong word shapes that reward generous spacing and larger settings.
