A faceted, blackletter-inspired design with straight, chiseled stems and angular joins that suggest broad-nib or carved construction. Curves are minimized and often resolved into polygonal arcs, giving round letters like O/Q a multi-sided, shield-like silhouette. Terminals tend toward sharp, clipped endings with small wedge-like feet and occasional spur details, while capitals show pronounced, ornamental top contours. The rhythm is moderately open for a gothic style, with clear counters and a steady baseline, and the numerals follow the same edged, geometric logic for a cohesive set.
Well-suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, book and album covers, and thematic branding where a historic or gothic flavor is desired. It can also work for short passages in larger sizes, like pull quotes, chapter openers, or event materials that benefit from a medieval atmosphere.
The font conveys a medieval, storybook tone with a handcrafted edge—part heraldic and ceremonial, part rustic and illustrative. Its sharp angles and carved forms evoke manuscripts, signage, and old-world titles rather than modern neutrality.
The design appears intended to deliver a blackletter feel with a more geometric, carved interpretation, prioritizing strong silhouette and themed character while keeping letterforms comparatively open for display legibility.
In text settings the design maintains strong texture without becoming overly dense, helped by simplified blackletter structures and readable word shapes. Distinctive, angular bowls and diamond-like counters give it an emblematic presence, especially in capitals and round letters.
