A decorative serif with heavy, high-contrast strokes and bracketed serifs, shaped with soft curves and slightly flared terminals. A consistent inline cut runs through the filled strokes, creating a hollowed, engraved look that stays readable even at display sizes. The letterforms feel generously proportioned with rounded counters and a steady, upright stance; curves are full and smooth, while joins and serifs add a carved, dimensional impression. Numerals and capitals carry the strongest visual weight, with the inline detail emphasizing the thick–thin rhythm across the set.
Best suited for headlines, titles, and short bursts of text where the inline carving can be appreciated. It performs especially well in posters, signage, badges, and packaging fronts that benefit from a bold, vintage display voice. For long passages, the strong decorative detailing is more effective as an accent than as a continuous reading face.
The overall tone is showy and nostalgic, evoking poster typography, fairground signage, and turn-of-the-century display printing. The inline detailing adds a crafted, theatrical flair that reads as confident and attention-grabbing rather than restrained.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display serif that combines classic serif structure with an inline, engraved effect to create depth and ornament without relying on color. It aims to deliver a confident, nostalgic presence for prominent typographic moments.
The inline treatment behaves like a continuous highlight, giving strokes a beveled, woodtype-like presence. In text settings it maintains a strong color and texture, with the interior line adding sparkle and patterning that becomes a key part of the rhythm.
