A heavy, right-leaning serif with pronounced stroke contrast and tapered, flared terminals that give the letters a carved, chiseled feel. Serifs are sharp and wedge-like rather than blocky, and many joins and endings pinch to points, creating crisp silhouettes. Rounds (O, C, G, o, e) show stressed curves and tight counters for the weight, while diagonals and angled strokes (V, W, X, k, v, w) feel especially energetic. The overall rhythm is compact and punchy, with sturdy capitals and slightly smaller, lively lowercase forms that keep a consistent slanted axis.
Works best for display settings where bold contrast and sharp serifs can be appreciated: headlines, poster titles, editorial openers, and energetic branding. It also suits packaging and labels that want a premium, classic edge with a dynamic slant.
The tone is bold and theatrical, mixing traditional serif cues with a fast, assertive italic drive. Its sharp terminals and high-contrast modeling suggest a classic, slightly aggressive polish—well suited to attention-grabbing, statement typography rather than quiet body text.
Likely intended as a high-impact display serif that combines traditional, flared serif construction with italic motion for strong emphasis and immediacy. The design prioritizes striking silhouettes, crisp terminals, and dramatic contrast to deliver a confident, attention-forward voice.
Several letters exhibit distinctive, slightly swashy shaping and angular tension—noticeable in the uppercases like Q and the diagonals of X and Y—while numerals maintain the same wedge-terminal language for a cohesive display palette. At larger sizes the crisp flares and pointed details read cleanly; at smaller sizes the tight counters and sharp joins may feel more condensed and intense.
