A heavy, high-contrast serif with sculpted, flaring terminals that read as wedge-like serifs rather than flat slabs. Stems are robust and dark, while joins and curves show abrupt thinning and pointed transitions, creating crisp, angular counter-shapes. The letterforms lean on strong vertical structure with compact apertures and tight interior spaces, giving the face a dense, poster-ready color. Uppercase proportions feel monumental and controlled; lowercase forms are sturdy with pronounced, tapered feet and beak-like endings, and numerals carry the same cut, flared finishing for a cohesive texture.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and branding where strong contrast and sculpted terminals can be appreciated at size. It works well for editorial mastheads, book covers, posters, and premium packaging, and can serve short subheads or pull quotes when set with comfortable tracking and leading.
The overall tone is authoritative and bold, with a vintage editorial flavor and a slightly theatrical bite from the sharp, tapered details. It balances classical seriousness with a display-forward drama, making text feel emphatic and formal rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, authoritative serif voice with a distinctive flared finish—combining traditional serif structure with sharpened, carved details for high-impact display typography.
The flared stroke endings and pointed thinning at curves create a distinctive rhythm that holds attention, especially in larger sizes. Because counters are relatively tight at this weight, spacing and line length will strongly affect readability in continuous text.
