A decorative serif with strongly sculpted, high-contrast strokes and a distinctly carved look. Serifs are sharp and wedge-like, and many joins and terminals feature triangular cut-ins that create a pseudo-stencil rhythm without fully breaking the letterforms. Curves (notably in C, G, O, S) are tensioned and faceted by abrupt internal notches, while straight strokes are broad and confident. Proportions run on the wide side with sturdy capitals and a slightly condensed feel in some lowercase forms, producing an overall bold, display-forward texture.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, mastheads, posters, and brand marks where the carved details can read clearly. It can add an upscale, stylized voice to packaging and campaign graphics, especially when used in short phrases or larger sizes with generous spacing.
The font reads as assertive and theatrical, blending editorial sophistication with an ornamental, poster-like edge. Its chiseled details and dramatic contrast evoke fashion mastheads, luxe packaging, and stylized period or fantasy titling rather than neutral text setting.
Likely designed to reinterpret a classic serif structure with incised, cut-paper detailing to deliver a distinctive, fashion-forward display voice. The consistent triangular notches and wedge serifs appear intended to create a memorable silhouette and a signature texture across a full alphabet and numerals.
The distinctive cut-in shapes repeat across letters and numerals, giving a cohesive, branded patterning that becomes more prominent at larger sizes. In dense text blocks the interior notches create lively sparkle and strong word shapes, but the sharp detailing suggests it will be most effective when given breathing room.
