A very heavy, high-contrast serif with sharply tapered wedge/bracketed serifs and strongly sculpted curves. Stems are tall and commanding, with tight apertures and pronounced vertical stress that gives rounds (C, O, S) a carved, poster-like solidity. Terminals often finish in beak-like points or crisp wedges, and several joins show slight cut-ins that read like subtle ink-trap notches at this weight. The overall rhythm is compact and dense, with sturdy capitals and a slightly smaller, robust lowercase that maintains the same chiseled edge behavior.
Best suited to large sizes where its tapered serifs, cut-in details, and contrast can read clearly—such as headlines, posters, mastheads, and cover typography. It can also work for bold editorial pull quotes or branding that needs a traditional, high-impact serif voice, while longer passages will typically require generous leading and size to avoid a heavy texture.
The tone is forceful and traditional, evoking old-style print authority while leaning into a theatrical, headline-forward boldness. Its sharp serifs and compact counters add a sense of seriousness and impact, making the voice feel declarative rather than delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact within a classic serif framework: a condensed-feeling, ink-rich silhouette with sculpted wedges and dramatic contrast that reads instantly in display settings. Its detailing suggests a focus on print-style presence and emphatic typographic color rather than quiet text neutrality.
In continuous text the heavy black color dominates quickly; spacing appears intentionally tight for impact, and the strong contrast can create bright "sparkle" along the thin horizontals in letters like E, F, and T. Numerals are similarly weighty and display-oriented, matching the capitals’ monumental proportions.
