A heavy, right-leaning serif with pronounced contrast and sculpted, flared stroke endings that read like wedge serifs. The letterforms combine broad, dark main strokes with tight, blade-like hairline cuts that carve into bowls and joins, creating distinctive triangular notches and teardrop apertures. Curves are compact and tense, with crisp entry/exit points and a slightly calligraphic stress, while capitals feel wide and monumental compared to the more agile, slanted lowercase. Numerals share the same chiseled construction, with sharp internal cut-ins and strong, graphic silhouettes.
Best suited to display work where its sculpted contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated—magazine mastheads, striking headlines, posters, and brand marks. It can also work for short pull quotes or packaging callouts where a dramatic, vintage-leaning serif voice is desired.
The overall tone is theatrical and high-impact, with a polished, poster-like confidence. Its sharp cuts and flared endings evoke vintage headline typography and fashion/editorial styling, balancing elegance with a slightly aggressive, dramatic edge.
Likely designed as a statement display serif that merges high-contrast elegance with flared, chiseled detailing for maximum impact. The consistent triangular cut-ins and wedge-like endings suggest an intention to create a distinctive, recognizable texture in headlines rather than quiet long-form readability.
In text settings, the dense black shapes and high-contrast cut-ins create a lively sparkle, but the tight counters and pointed joins make it feel most comfortable at larger sizes. The italic slant and varying stroke expansions give words a forward momentum and a distinctly display-driven rhythm.
