A heavy, high-contrast serif with sculpted, flared stroke endings and pronounced bracketed joins. The letterforms are broad and assertive, with crisp, sharp serifs, narrow apertures in several counters, and a rhythm driven by thick verticals and tapered diagonals. Curves show strong modulation and slightly carved-in shaping, while the overall construction stays upright and stable. Numerals and capitals read as robust and display-oriented, with consistent flare behavior at terminals and a tightly controlled, graphic silhouette.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, cover typography, and brand marks where its bold contrast and flared detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for short editorial passages or pull quotes at generous sizes, especially when a formal, classic presence is desired.
The font conveys a bold editorial voice with a classic, heritage-leaning tone. Its sculpted contrast and flared finishing give it a sense of ceremony and authority, while the wide stance adds confident, headline-level impact.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a traditional serif vocabulary, combining strong contrast and flared terminals to create a sculpted, authoritative reading experience for prominent typography.
In the text sample, the dense weight and narrow interior spaces create a dark, powerful texture that favors larger sizes. The flared terminals and sharp serif details become a defining visual motif, producing a distinctive, slightly engraved feel across both uppercase and lowercase.
