A heavy, display-oriented serif with wedge-like, flaring terminals that expand out of the main strokes, giving an incised, carved-in-stone impression. Strokes show pronounced contrast, with thick verticals and much finer connecting strokes, and many joins resolve into sharp, triangular beaks rather than blunt serifs. The letterforms are broadly proportioned and assertive, with tight internal counters in several glyphs and a rhythmic alternation of thick stems and thin hairlines. Numerals and capitals share the same chiseled terminal language, producing a consistent, sculptural texture across settings.
Best suited to headlines and short to medium display text where the flared terminals and strong contrast can be appreciated. It works well for posters, book covers, mastheads, and branding systems that want a classic yet emphatic presence, especially at larger sizes.
The overall tone is formal and theatrical, suggesting tradition and gravitas with a slightly baroque flair. Its sharp, flaring endings and high-contrast structure read as confident and declarative, lending an authoritative voice suited to attention-grabbing typography.
Likely designed as an attention-forward display serif that translates an engraved, calligraphic stroke into a bold, sculpted typographic voice. The widened terminals and sharp joins appear intended to add drama and a sense of craft while maintaining a cohesive, traditional structure across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
In text, the strong weight and tight counters create a dark, compact color, while the angled, beaked terminals add a lively, cutting edge to the silhouettes. The forms feel more engraved than bracketed, emphasizing crispness and impact over neutrality.
