A bold italic serif with flared, wedge-like terminals and bracketed serifs that feel carved rather than mechanical. Strokes show a gentle contrast and a lively, calligraphic slant, with rounded bowls and tapered joins that keep counters open at display sizes. The texture is energetic and slightly irregular in a controlled way, and the capitals carry broad proportions with crisp, angled finishing strokes. Lowercase forms lean into the italic construction with prominent entry/exit strokes and sturdy, rounded shapes, producing a dark, even color across lines.
Best suited for headlines, short paragraphs, and prominent pull quotes where its bold italic rhythm and flared serif character can be appreciated. It also works well for branding and packaging that aims for a classic, crafted voice, and for editorial display typography where a strong, dark typographic color is desirable.
The overall tone is assertive and traditional, combining a bookish, old-style flavor with a punchy, forward motion from the italic angle. It reads as confident and slightly dramatic, suitable for messaging that wants heritage cues without feeling delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a robust, high-impact italic serif with a carved, flared terminal language—balancing traditional serif cues with energetic forward movement for attention-grabbing display use.
The figures appear sturdy and readable with noticeable angled terminals that echo the serif treatment, helping numerals and capitals feel consistent as a set. At smaller sizes the heavy, flared details may accumulate into a strong texture, while at larger sizes the wedge terminals and bracketed joins become a key stylistic signature.
