A dense, display-oriented serif with heavy vertical stems, pronounced contrast, and crisp wedge-like bracketed serifs. Curves are tightly drawn with compact counters, giving round letters a slightly pinched, carved feel. The joins and terminals show sharp interior notches and small triangular cut-ins that add a chiseled rhythm, while overall spacing stays broad enough to keep the letterforms readable at large sizes. Numerals are similarly weighty and robust, with strong horizontals and sculpted curves that match the caps.
This font is best suited to headlines, mastheads, cover typography, and bold brand marks where its sculpted serifs and strong contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial callouts or chapter openers, but its dense counters and sharp detailing favor larger settings over extended small-size text.
The tone is authoritative and traditional, suggesting classic print culture and formal signage. Its sharpened terminals and carved details add a slightly theatrical, old-world flavor that reads as confident and emphatic rather than delicate.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum impact with a classic serif voice, combining traditional proportions with engraved-like detailing for a distinctive, attention-grabbing texture in display typography.
The design’s distinctive character comes from the repeated triangular nicks at joins and terminals, which create a consistent engraved texture across both uppercase and lowercase. The weight and tight internal spaces make it most comfortable when given generous size and breathing room.
