A forward-leaning serif with pronounced wedge-like, flared terminals and clearly bracketed serifs that give strokes a carved, chiseled finish. The letterforms show an oblique stress and a calligraphic rhythm, with tapered joins and compact counters that keep the texture dense and energetic. Uppercase proportions feel sturdy and slightly condensed in presence, while the lowercase maintains a traditional, readable structure with a double-storey “g” and a slanted, sharp-shouldered “r”. Numerals are similarly angled and robust, with strong, sculpted terminals that match the text’s overall momentum.
Well-suited to headlines and subheads where the slanted, flared details can carry personality, especially in magazines, cultural editorial layouts, and poster typography. It can also serve branding and packaging that wants a traditional serif foundation with extra dynamism and impact.
The overall tone is classic and assertive, combining old-style editorial familiarity with a punchy, forward-driving slant. Its sharp terminals and confident weight add a slightly dramatic, headline-ready voice without tipping into ornament.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic serif reading experience with added motion and emphasis, using flared, wedge-like terminals and an oblique stress to create a bolder editorial presence than a neutral text serif.
Stroke endings frequently widen into flares, creating crisp, triangular finishing strokes that read well at display sizes and add bite to text. The italic construction feels integrated rather than decorative, maintaining consistent serif logic and a steady baseline rhythm across letters and figures.
