A decorative serif with flared, wedge-like terminals and a carved inline running through most strokes, creating a hollowed, engraved effect. Proportions sit in a traditional text-serif range with moderately wide capitals and a balanced, readable x-height. The stroke modulation is moderate and consistent, with crisp joins and gently cupped serifs that give counters a slightly pinched, sculpted feel. The numerals and capitals carry the inline most prominently, while the lowercase keeps the same serifed structure and rhythmic, bookish spacing.
Best suited to display applications where the inline can be appreciated: posters, headlines, titles, packaging, and signage. It can also work for short editorial pull quotes or chapter openers when set with generous size and spacing, while long passages will typically benefit from simpler companion text faces.
The inline detailing and chiseled serifs evoke a vintage, poster-era personality—part letterpress, part engraved signage. It reads as confident and slightly theatrical, lending a sense of craft and old-world formality without becoming overly ornate.
Designed to merge a traditional serif skeleton with an engraved inline accent, delivering a familiar literary structure while adding a distinctive decorative signature. The goal appears to be strong identity and period character for titling, without abandoning classic serif proportions.
The internal line adds visual sparkle and texture at larger sizes, especially in dense words and on diagonals, where the cut-in accent becomes a key identifying feature. In continuous reading, the inline can create additional horizontal and vertical activity, making size and line spacing important for a clean result.
