A sharply slanted serif italic with wedge-like terminals and an engraved inline cut that runs through most strokes, giving each letter a hollowed, split-stem look. Stems are moderately contrasted with crisp transitions and pointed, blade-like ends, while bowls and counters stay relatively open for an italic display face. Uppercase forms feel formal and sculpted, with slightly condensed proportions and a lively, forward rhythm; lowercase follows with flowing, calligraphic joins and a consistent diagonal stress. Numerals echo the same carved-in detail and angled stance, with clear, stylized shapes suited to display settings.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, and short passages where the inline carving can be appreciated. It works well for editorial display, boutique branding, packaging, invitations, and poster-style typography that benefits from an engraved, fashion-forward italic.
The carved inline treatment reads as ornamental and old-world, evoking engraved lettering and vintage editorial italics. Its sharp serifs and pronounced slant lend a sense of drama and sophistication, making the tone feel upscale and theatrical rather than utilitarian.
The design appears intended to modernize a traditional serif italic by adding an engraved inline detail, creating a distinctive display voice that combines classic letterforms with decorative, high-contrast texture.
The inline channel is prominent enough to remain visible at display sizes and creates a distinct two-stroke impression in heavier parts of each letter. Spacing appears relatively tight in running text, reinforcing its role as a decorative italic rather than a workhorse text face.
