A dense, display-oriented serif with pronounced thick–thin contrast and a calligraphic, flared finish to many strokes. Serifs are wedge-like and often asymmetrically bracketed, giving terminals a carved, ink-trap-adjacent bite in places (notably on curves and joins). Counters are compact and the overall color is dark and emphatic, while curved letters show strong modulation and a slightly sheared, hand-led rhythm. The lowercase includes single-storey forms (notably a and g), with energetic joins and tapered arms that reinforce the flared, sculptural construction.
This font is best used for headlines, titles, and short blocks where its strong contrast and sculpted serifs can be appreciated. It suits magazine/editorial display, book covers, event posters, and branding applications that want a traditional yet attention-commanding voice.
The tone is bold and theatrical, evoking engraved or poster-era letterforms with a confident, somewhat baroque presence. It reads as authoritative and expressive rather than neutral, with a vintage-leaning sophistication suited to attention-grabbing typography.
The design appears intended to merge classical serif structure with a more expressive, flared stroke finish, creating a high-impact display face that feels crafted and historic while remaining legible at larger sizes.
Caps are sturdy with sharp apexes and pronounced internal shaping; numerals are heavy and stylized, matching the dramatic modulation of the letters. Spacing appears comfortable in text samples, but the strong stroke contrast and distinctive terminals keep the texture lively and headline-forward.
