A serif text face with a delicate inline running through the main strokes, creating a carved, hollowed appearance without sacrificing the overall letterform structure. Proportions are balanced and traditional, with moderate x-height and gently bracketed serifs that keep the outlines readable. Curves are smooth and measured, terminals are tidy, and stroke joins are clean, producing an even rhythm across the alphabet. The inline detail is consistently applied, adding ornament while preserving familiar text-family geometry in both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and short editorial settings where the inline detail can be appreciated. It also fits premium packaging, menus, certificates, and event materials that benefit from a formal, engraved look. For longer passages, it will be most comfortable at larger text sizes with generous spacing.
The inline treatment lends a dressed-up, engraved tone that feels classic and refined, like vintage book typography or formal stationery. It reads as sophisticated rather than playful, with a quiet decorative quality that signals craft and tradition.
The design appears intended to merge classic serif readability with an ornamental inline cut, offering a more distinctive, display-ready voice while keeping conventional proportions and a disciplined rhythm.
The effect is strongest at display sizes where the interior line remains clearly separated from the outer stroke; at smaller sizes the detail may visually compress compared to a solid text face. Numerals and capitals carry the same internal striping, giving headlines and initials a coherent, ornamental presence.
