A tightly set blackletter with broken-stroke construction and pronounced angularity throughout. Stems are compact and vertical, while joins and terminals form sharp wedges and hooked spur details that create a jagged silhouette. Stroke endings often flare into small triangular notches, and counters stay relatively narrow, giving the forms a dense, vertical rhythm. Uppercase letters are more elaborate, with varied branching and decorative hooks, while the lowercase maintains a consistent cadence with clean, segmented strokes and restrained curvature.
Best suited for display settings where the strong blackletter texture can be appreciated: logotypes, posters, mastheads, album/merch graphics, and heritage-leaning packaging. It works especially well for short lines, titles, and initials, where the ornate capitals can carry the visual identity.
The font projects a traditional Gothic tone—formal, intense, and ceremonial. Its sharp edges and dense texture evoke manuscript and engraving traditions, lending an austere, historic mood with a touch of theatrical drama.
The design appears intended to deliver an authentic blackletter voice with crisp, pointed detailing and a compact vertical rhythm, emphasizing historical character and decorative presence over neutral body-text readability.
The uppercase set reads as the main display feature, with visibly higher ornament and more pronounced spur work than the lowercase. Numerals follow the same broken, wedge-terminal logic, keeping the overall texture consistent when mixed with text.
