A slanted serif with gently flared stems and compact, bracketed terminals that often finish in sharp, spur-like points. The overall color is even and low-contrast, with smooth curves and subtly tapered joins that create a lively, handwritten rhythm without looking rough. Uppercase forms are clean and moderately wide with pronounced triangular finishing strokes, while the lowercase shows more modulation in structure—especially in letters like a, g, k, and y—where angled exits and pointed feet add motion. Numerals follow the same language, mixing rounded bowls with angled entry/exit strokes and small, crisp terminals.
Well-suited to editorial headlines, pull quotes, and book or chapter titling where its pointed terminals can add character. It can also work for short-to-medium text in print contexts that benefit from a classic serif voice with a livelier, calligraphic cadence, and for branding or packaging that wants a traditional-but-expressive feel.
The font conveys a traditional, literary tone with a touch of drama from its pointed terminals and forward slant. It feels bookish and slightly theatrical—more expressive than a plain text serif—while still maintaining a composed, readable presence.
The design appears intended to blend conventional serif structure with flared, sharpened terminals and an italic stance, creating a recognizable, energetic texture without relying on strong contrast. It aims for a classic reading heritage while adding distinctive, ornamental finishing details that stand out in display settings.
Spacing appears comfortable in the sample text, and the slanted rhythm is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and figures. Many strokes end in small, horn-like points that create a distinctive sparkle at display sizes, while the low-contrast build keeps paragraphs from becoming overly busy.
