A heavy, compact serif with thick, low-contrast strokes and pronounced flared terminals that broaden into wedge-like serifs. The silhouettes are tight and sturdy, with relatively narrow proportions and a strong vertical emphasis. Curves are full and smooth, while joins and terminals show subtle notches/ink-trap-like shaping that helps counters stay open at weight. Lowercase forms are robust and slightly condensed, with a single-storey “a” and “g” and a compact, rhythmic texture in text.
Best suited to display settings where impact is desired: headlines, posters, packaging, and bold brand wordmarks. It can also work for short editorial blurbs or pull quotes where a dense, classic voice is appropriate, but its weight and compactness make it less ideal for long, small-size body text.
The overall tone is bold and declarative, with a vintage editorial flavor that recalls classic display typography. Its flared endings and dense color give it a confident, slightly dramatic presence that feels both traditional and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence in a compact width while maintaining a traditional serif identity. Flared terminals and slightly notched joins suggest an aim for strong reproduction in print-like contexts, balancing a dark headline color with counters that remain legible.
In the sample text, the font produces a dark, even typographic color with clear word shapes despite the weight, helped by generous counters and controlled apertures. Numerals and caps read as blocky and authoritative, and the wedge-like serifs contribute a subtly carved, engraved feel rather than a sharp modern crispness.
