A tall, condensed serif design drawn as an outline with a fine inner inline that creates a double-stroked, hollow effect. The letters are built from slender, largely monoline contours with gently flared terminals and subtle wedge-like serifs, producing a refined vertical rhythm. Curves are narrow and taut, with teardrop-like joins and occasional curled details in characters such as J, Q, g, and y. Spacing is airy and the overall color stays light, emphasizing the linear construction and the font’s high, columnar proportions.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, poster titles, brand marks, and premium packaging where the outline construction can be shown at generous sizes. It also fits event materials—invites, menus, and programs—when a refined, vintage-leaning tone is desired.
The font conveys an elegant, old-world sophistication with a fashion-forward, display-oriented poise. Its delicate outlining and tall proportions feel ceremonial and slightly theatrical, suggesting vintage signage and refined editorial typography rather than utilitarian text setting.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact, elegant display voice by combining condensed proportions with an outline-plus-inline drawing that adds detail without adding weight. The goal seems to be a distinctive, decorative serif that feels upscale and period-informed while remaining crisp and controlled in its geometry.
The inline-and-outline construction reads clearly at larger sizes, where the hollow channels and small ornamental curls become part of the personality. Numerals follow the same narrow, lined treatment, with distinctive looped forms (notably 2 and 9) that reinforce the decorative, period-leaning character.
