A sharply angular italic serif with faceted, chiseled-looking terminals and small bracketed serifs that often resolve into wedge-like points. Strokes show subtle tapering and broken-looking corners, giving many joins a cut or notched feel rather than smooth curves. Counters tend toward squared and octagonal shapes (notably in O/0 and rounded letters), and the overall rhythm leans forward with energetic diagonals and compact internal spaces. The figures are sturdy and stylized, with the 0 and 8 built from polygonal forms that echo the caps’ faceting.
Best suited for display settings such as titles, posters, and standout headlines where its angular italic texture can carry personality. It can work well for branding and packaging that aims for a historic, adventurous, or crafted feel, especially at medium to large sizes where the faceting and sharp terminals remain clear.
The tone feels adventurous and old-world, evoking signage, heraldry, and classic fantasy or historical display lettering. Its sharp edges and forward slant add motion and drama, while the serif treatment keeps it grounded in a traditional, formal register.
Likely drawn to reinterpret italic serif structure through a faceted, engraved construction, prioritizing character and thematic atmosphere over neutral readability. The consistent chiseled terminals and polygonal curves suggest an intent to evoke traditional craft or historical lettering in a contemporary, repeatable font form.
The design favors crisp corners and flattened curves throughout, creating strong texture in words and a consistent engraved/stonecut impression. Uppercase forms read assertive and emblematic, while lowercase maintains the same angular construction for a unified, decorative text color.
