A pointed blackletter with tightly drawn, upright proportions and crisp, angular joins. Strokes alternate between dense vertical stems and thin, blade-like connecting strokes, producing a chiseled rhythm and strong internal counters. Terminals are sharply beveled with small wedge serifs and occasional hooked finishes, giving letters a faceted, engraved feel. Uppercase forms are compact and structured, while lowercase maintains a consistent vertical texture with clear, narrow apertures and disciplined spacing.
Best suited to display work such as logotypes, posters, mastheads, and titles where its dense blackletter texture can be appreciated. It can also add a traditional, craft, or ceremonial tone to labels and packaging, especially when set with ample tracking and clear contrast against the background.
The font projects a formal, medieval tone with a stern, authoritative voice. Its sharp geometry and dense vertical cadence evoke manuscripts, heraldry, and institutional gravitas, making the overall impression dramatic and ceremonial rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic blackletter presence with crisp, modern vector precision—preserving traditional pointed construction while keeping forms disciplined and repeatable for contemporary display typography.
Distinctive numeral shapes and the consistent use of angled cuts help maintain a cohesive, carved look across letters and figures. The sample text shows a strong word-shape texture with pronounced vertical emphasis, which reads best when given generous size and breathing room.
