A decorative serif design with a distinctly angular, cut-from-metal construction. Stems are heavy and vertical, with faceted corners and sharp internal joins that create a beveled, chiseled look. Serifs are pointed and wedge-like rather than bracketed, and many terminals resolve into spearhead forms. Counters tend to be narrow and rectilinear, producing a tight rhythm and a strong black-and-white pattern, while the overall texture stays fairly even across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited for short display settings where its angular detailing can be appreciated—posters, titles, mastheads, and logo wordmarks. It can also work well on packaging and labels that want a historic or fantasy flavor, especially at larger sizes and with generous tracking to prevent the dark texture from clogging.
The tone is gothic and ceremonial, evoking historic signage, heraldic lettering, and storybook or fantasy settings. Its sharp geometry and dense color feel forceful and official, with a dramatic, old-world seriousness that reads as assertive rather than friendly.
The design appears intended to reinterpret blackletter and old-style inscription cues in a more geometric, sharpened display serif. Its consistent faceting and spear-like serifs suggest a goal of creating a bold, emblematic voice that feels carved, armored, and historically charged.
Capitals are tall and architectural, with distinctive notches and angled cuts that emphasize verticality. Lowercase forms maintain the same rigid, fractured logic, with compact bowls and crisp shoulders. Numerals follow the same blocky, engraved style, keeping the set visually cohesive for display use.
