A condensed decorative serif with tall proportions, a strong vertical axis, and pronounced, flared wedge-like serifs. Strokes read as mostly straight and chiseled, with modest contrast and crisp, angular joins that give the letterforms a carved, woodtype-like feel. Counters are relatively tight and the overall rhythm is vertical and columnar, helped by narrow widths and sturdy stems. Terminals often end in sharp points or small wedges, and the numerals follow the same rigid, sculpted construction for a unified texture in display settings.
Best suited to posters, headlines, titles, and short statements where its dramatic, condensed presence can lead the layout. It also fits branding and packaging that aim for a historic, gothic, or craft-made impression, and can work on book covers or chapter openers when set large with careful spacing.
The tone is gothic and theatrical, evoking vintage posters, folklore, and old-world signage. Its sharp, formal silhouettes feel commanding and slightly ominous, lending an authoritative, ceremonial voice rather than a casual or friendly one.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact display typography with a carved, ornamental serif language, combining a narrow footprint with strong vertical emphasis. Its consistent wedge serifs and angular construction suggest a goal of creating a distinctive, period-evocative voice for attention-grabbing titles and signage-like applications.
In continuous text the condensed width and tight counters create a dense, dark color, so the design reads best when given breathing room via tracking and generous line spacing. The distinctive wedge serifs and angular notches are primary identifiers that remain noticeable even at a glance.
