A compact, angular serif with a distinctly carved, chamfered silhouette. Strokes are heavy and fairly even, with crisp corners and small, bracket-like wedge serifs that create a faceted, almost engraved feel. Counters tend toward squarish forms, curves are tightened into polygonal arcs, and terminals often end in sharp, clipped angles rather than smooth tapers. The overall rhythm is tight and vertical, giving the face a sturdy, emphatic texture in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, titles, posters, labels, and logo work where the angular detailing can be appreciated. It also works well for themed signage and packaging that aims for a vintage or western-inspired look, but will feel heavy and busy at very small sizes or in long body text.
The design reads as classic display lettering with a frontier and early-industrial flavor—confident, a bit severe, and attention-grabbing. Its hard edges and cut-in details suggest tradition and toughness, lending a nostalgic, poster-era tone.
The letterforms appear designed to evoke carved or stamped display typography, prioritizing bold presence, compact fit, and a distinctive faceted silhouette. Its consistent chamfering and wedge-like serifs point to an intention of creating a recognizable, period-leaning voice for attention-led applications.
Capitals have a strong, uniform presence with pronounced chamfers at key joins, while the lowercase maintains the same faceted construction for consistency. Numerals and punctuation follow the same squared, notched logic, reinforcing a cohesive, sign-ready voice.
