A heavy, right-leaning serif with a calligraphic, brush-cut feel. Strokes show slightly irregular, inked edges and tapered terminals that form wedge-like, bracketed serifs rather than crisp, machined ones. Curves are broad and rounded but often finish in sharp, angled flicks, giving counters a lively, hand-shaped quality. Letterforms run on a sturdy rhythm with compact joins and occasional swelling in verticals, producing a dense, poster-ready texture.
Best used for headlines, posters, packaging, and book or album covers where strong black shapes and an italic, hand-cut energy add impact. It can also support branding and editorial display lines, especially where a vintage or craft-leaning tone is desired.
The overall tone is bold and old-world, combining a classic serif foundation with energetic, hand-rendered motion. It suggests vintage display typography—confident and slightly rugged—suited to designs that want personality without abandoning tradition.
Likely designed as a characterful display serif that blends conventional serif structure with brush-like, calligraphic shaping for high-impact typography. The goal appears to be strong presence at larger sizes while retaining recognizable, traditional letterforms.
In text settings the dark color and angled serifs create strong horizontal movement and a pronounced silhouette, especially in capitals. Numerals share the same calligraphic slant and heavy presence, reinforcing a cohesive, emphatic voice across headings and short runs.
