This typeface is a compact serif with sturdy verticals and distinctly flared stroke endings that broaden into small wedge-like terminals. Serifs read as bracketed and tapered rather than slabbed, with a slightly pinched, sculpted quality where strokes meet. The overall texture is bold and dark on the page, with tight counters, crisp apertures, and a rhythmic alternation of straight stems and rounded bowls. Uppercase forms are stately and condensed, while the lowercase maintains clear differentiation and a controlled, even cadence across words.
Best suited for display settings where a strong, compact serif voice is desirable—headlines, posters, packaging, and cover typography. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or subheads when you want a dark, authoritative texture without moving into slab-serif territory.
The letterforms convey a vintage, poster-like confidence with an editorial seriousness. Its flared terminals add a hand-tooled, slightly theatrical tone that feels classic and assertive rather than delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability with a distinctive flared-serif signature, balancing traditional serif structure with bolder, more sculptural terminals for attention-grabbing display use.
In text, the dense color and compact proportions create a strong typographic presence, especially in capitals and numerals. Curves are smooth and controlled, and terminals tend to finish with subtle hooks or wedges that give the face a distinctive, carved silhouette.
