Jazz BT specimen from Bastarda

A semi-display slab serif with heavy teardrop terminals and Art Nouveau proportions in the uppercase, suited to editorial and branding work at headline scale.

About

Two styles, Regular and Italic, built around generous proportions and pronounced teardrop-shaped terminals that give the face a bold graphic presence without collapsing into purely decorative territory. The uppercase letterforms carry clear Art Nouveau references in their counterforms and ornamental details, making all-caps settings particularly effective for headlines, section titles and logotypes. The foundry positions it for mid-length reading contexts such as magazines and brochures, though its character reads most strongly at display sizes.

Classification

A slab serif with heavy teardrop terminals and Art Nouveau influences in the uppercase, positioned by the foundry as semi-display; the ornamental proportions and decorative counterforms place it firmly in display slab territory.
