This typeface is a right-leaning, serifed design with faceted, chiseled-looking stroke endings and slightly irregular contours that suggest a hand-cut or inked construction. Stems and diagonals carry a firm, weighty presence, while curves are often polygonal rather than fully round, giving letters a crisp, angular texture. Serifs are short and flared, with pointed terminals and wedge-like joins that create sharp highlights at corners. Spacing is moderately open for a display face, and the overall rhythm is lively, with small asymmetries and varying internal angles that keep lines of text animated.
Best suited for headlines, titles, and short bursts of text where its carved, angular personality can be appreciated. It works well for fantasy or historical-themed book covers, packaging, posters, and identity work that benefits from a bold, handcrafted presence. For long passages, it is likely most effective at larger sizes and with comfortable leading to preserve clarity.
The font conveys a medieval and storybook tone—evoking signage, heraldic lettering, and fantasy or historical settings. Its sharp terminals and faceted curves add drama and a slightly rugged, handcrafted character, making it feel more expressive than formal.
The design appears intended to translate a calligraphic or hand-carved sensibility into a sturdy display serif, prioritizing distinctive silhouettes and dramatic terminals. Its consistent faceting and flared endings suggest a deliberate effort to evoke historical lettering while keeping a cohesive, impactful texture in modern composition.
Uppercase forms show strong, emblematic silhouettes (notably the octagonal feel in rounded letters like O and Q), while lowercase keeps the same angular logic for bowls and shoulders. Numerals are similarly cut and stylized, with distinctive, pointed turns that read as decorative rather than strictly utilitarian.
