A slanted, high-contrast serif with thick, weighty main strokes and sharply tapered hairlines. Serifs are pronounced and often flare or bracket into the stems, with pointed terminals and wedge-like finishing that give the outlines a carved, energetic edge. Curves are generous and slightly condensed in feeling, while joins and diagonals show a calligraphic bias that produces a rhythmic, forward-leaning texture. The lowercase features compact bowls and lively entry/exit strokes, and the numerals follow the same contrast and angular finishing for a cohesive, display-oriented set.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and cover work where the strong contrast and flared serif details can be appreciated. It can also serve as a distinctive brand voice for packaging or identity systems, particularly when used in short bursts or paired with a calmer companion for body text.
The overall tone feels dramatic and vintage, with a confident, slightly theatrical voice. Its sharp tapers and flared endings suggest classic print and signage traditions, lending an editorial and poster-like presence that reads as expressive rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, expressive serif voice with calligraphic movement and flared finishing, optimized for impact in display typography. The consistent contrast and stylized terminals aim to create a recognizable texture and a sense of classic, print-forward sophistication.
In running text at larger sizes, the strong contrast and pointed terminals create a sparkling, textured color on the line. The italic angle and brisk stroke modulation emphasize motion, and the font’s distinctive terminals become a primary signature feature in headings and short phrases.
