A decorative serif with slender, sharply pointed wedge serifs and frequent ink-trap-like cut-ins that create small triangular voids at joins and terminals. Strokes stay relatively even, but the letterforms are strongly sculpted by deep notches, tapered entries, and blade-like cross strokes that produce a crisp, faceted silhouette. Curves are smooth yet interrupted by precise cutaways (notably in rounded capitals and figures), giving the alphabet a chiseled, poster-oriented texture and an irregular rhythm of positive and negative space.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, magazine mastheads, fashion and beauty branding, posters, and premium packaging where the cut-in detailing can remain visible. It will also work for short editorial pull quotes or titles, especially at larger sizes and with comfortable tracking.
The overall tone is polished and dramatic—more runway and magazine than bookish. Its cut-in details and razor terminals evoke a vintage, Art Deco–adjacent sophistication with a slightly mysterious, couture edge. The font reads as elegant and intentional, with a display-first presence.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a classic serif through an incised, cut-paper/chiseled approach—using sharp wedges and controlled voids to add spectacle while keeping familiar proportions. The goal is a distinctive, high-end display voice that feels both vintage-referential and contemporary in its precision.
In text, the recurring triangular apertures become a defining texture, so spacing and line breaks will noticeably affect the patterning. The numerals and capitals carry the strongest personality, while the lowercase maintains the same incised logic, keeping the system cohesive.
