A very heavy, high-contrast serif with pronounced flared stroke endings and wedge-like serifs that feel carved rather than mechanically bracketed. Curves are broad and taut, with pinched joins and tapered transitions that create a sculptural, slightly calligraphic rhythm across both cases. The lowercase shows a tall x-height with compact counters and sturdy verticals, while capitals are wide-shouldered and emphatic, giving lines a strong, poster-like color. Numerals follow the same engraved contrast and tapering, reading bold and decorative rather than purely utilitarian.
Best suited to large sizes where the sculpted contrast and flared terminals can be appreciated—headlines, display typography, posters, and book or album covers. It can also work for bold brand marks and packaging that want a vintage or editorial voice, while extended body text may feel dense due to the weight and compact counters.
The overall tone is bold and theatrical, evoking vintage display typography and dramatic editorial headlines. Its sharp tapers and flared endings add a refined, slightly formal edge, while the heavy black shapes keep it energetic and attention-grabbing.
This font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a distinctive, engraved-like silhouette—combining classic serif cues with flared, tapering strokes to create a dramatic display texture. The tall lowercase proportions suggest an intention to keep words compact and readable in large headline settings while maintaining a strong, stylized personality.
The design’s character comes through most in letters with diagonals and junctions (like A, K, N, V, W), where the strokes narrow into tight points before swelling into terminals. Round forms (O, C, G) keep a steady, confident curve, but the inner shapes remain relatively small, reinforcing a dense, high-impact texture in paragraphs.
