A compact blackletter with tightly set, upright forms built from sharp, broken curves and wedge-like terminals. Stems are heavy and dark, with medium contrast introduced by tapered joins and pointed entry/exit strokes. Counters are small and often pinched, and many characters show crisp interior notches that create a faceted, carved rhythm. Capitals are more decorative and slightly more open than the lowercase, while figures adopt the same pointed, calligraphic construction and maintain a consistent dark color across the line.
Best suited to headlines, mastheads, logos, and short display lines where the blackletter texture can be appreciated at larger sizes. It can also work for certificates, invitations, packaging, and thematic posters that aim for a historic or gothic voice.
The overall tone feels medieval and ceremonial, with a stern, traditional authority typical of gothic lettering. Its sharp angles and dense texture bring a dramatic, old-world atmosphere that reads as historical and formal rather than casual.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic blackletter presence with a clean, consistent digital rendering—emphasizing pointed terminals, broken strokes, and a dense, authoritative texture for display typography.
The texture is intentionally dark and patterned, producing a strong vertical cadence and a recognizable “black” page color. Spacing appears fairly tight in running text, which amplifies the woven, ornamental feel and favors shorter settings over long passages.
