It is a very fun decorative font, with hint of a western feel. The blockiness of the letter forms give a sense of hardy and sturdiness, and yet with the heaviness this font carries, there is also an elegance with the use of curves and adapted serifs.
Its features make Trochera very useful for flamboyant and colorful purposes, but it is also attractive in black and white, the saturation of the ornaments will give an appealing texture to headings.
