A decorative serif with tall, condensed proportions and gently bracketed serifs. Strokes are defined by an incised inline cut that runs through the main stems and curves, producing a carved, engraved look rather than flat color. Terminals often flare into wedge-like feet and tips, and the rounded letters show a slightly pinched, vertical stress that heightens the display character. Lowercase forms are compact with a fairly even rhythm, while ascenders and capitals rise prominently; numerals follow the same inline treatment with dramatic, tapered shapes.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, titles, packaging, and logotypes where the engraved inline can be appreciated. It can add vintage flair to short editorial headings or pull quotes, but works most confidently when given room and size to preserve the interior carving.
The font reads as theatrical and period-leaning, evoking old playbills, bookplates, and ornate signage. The inline carving adds sparkle and ceremony, giving headlines a crafted, boutique feel with a touch of whimsy.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, engraved display voice—combining condensed, bracketed serifs with a consistent inline cut to create depth and ornament without relying on heavy contrast. It aims to stand out in titling contexts with a crafted, historic tone.
The inline detail creates strong interior highlights, so the design tends to look most distinctive at larger sizes where the carved channel stays crisp. Its narrow set and tall capitals build a vertical, poster-like cadence, and the overall texture feels more decorative than text-oriented.
