A decorative serif with tall, narrow proportions and pronounced stroke-contrast. The dominant feature is an inline cut running through many stems and curves, creating a carved, engraved look within otherwise solid black strokes. Terminals are sharp and crisp, with occasional curled or tapered finishes that add motion, while bowls and arches stay relatively compact to preserve a tight rhythm. Overall spacing is slightly irregular in a display-friendly way, and the numerals echo the same inline treatment and contrast for a consistent set.
Best suited to headlines and short display settings where the inline carving can be appreciated—posters, branding marks, packaging fronts, and event or invitation typography. It can also work for pull quotes or section titles, but the fine interior detailing benefits from comfortable sizes and clean reproduction.
The inline carving and high-contrast silhouettes give the font a vintage, showcard sensibility that feels simultaneously refined and a bit theatrical. Its ornamental detailing reads as classic and stylish rather than minimal, suggesting a nostalgic, boutique tone with a hint of whimsy.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic display serif silhouette enhanced with inline engraving, adding depth and ornament without relying on heavy flourishes. It balances a formal, high-contrast structure with playful detailing to stand out in decorative, brand-forward typography.
The inline channels are especially noticeable on verticals and larger curves, producing a subtle striped/engraved texture at larger sizes. Some letters include distinctive, curving stroke endings that increase personality, making the face more attention-grabbing than neutral.
