A crisp blackletter with broken, angular strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Forms are compact and vertically oriented, with tight interior counters and pointed joins that create a dark, rhythmic texture in text. Capitals are more ornate and sculptural than the lowercase, featuring spurred terminals and wedge-like serifs, while the lowercase maintains a consistent, disciplined pattern of vertical stems and fractured curves. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, using tapered strokes and sharp finishing cuts for a cohesive overall color.
Well suited to display typography such as headlines, title treatments, band or brewery identities, packaging labels, and poster work where a historic or Gothic voice is desired. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or chapter openers, especially when paired with a simpler companion face for body text.
The font projects a traditional, ceremonious tone—formal and authoritative with a distinctly old-world gravity. Its dense texture and sharp rhythm evoke manuscript and inscriptional heritage, making it feel serious, historic, and slightly intimidating rather than casual or friendly.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic blackletter presence with strong calligraphic contrast and a disciplined vertical cadence, emphasizing tradition and gravitas. Its sharper terminals and controlled spacing aim to keep the texture cohesive and legible for modern display use while retaining an unmistakably medieval character.
In longer lines the repeated verticals create strong patterning and a compact word shape, while distinctive capitals provide emphasis for initials and short headings. The stroke contrast and tight counters suggest best performance at display sizes where the internal details can remain clear.
