A delicate serif with a continuous inline cut running through the main strokes, creating a hollowed, engraved effect while keeping crisp outer contours. The design is built on tall, slender proportions with gently bracketed serifs, tapered terminals, and smooth, calligraphic curves in bowls and shoulders. Contrast is moderate but feels more pronounced because the inline detail visually thins stems and adds sparkle, especially in capitals and figures. Lowercase shows a relatively small x-height with long ascenders and descenders, producing an airy vertical rhythm and a distinctly literary texture.
Best suited to headlines, pull quotes, mastheads, and brand marks where the inline detail can be appreciated. It also works well for packaging and invitations that want a premium, engraved aesthetic. For extended small-size text, the inline and fine hairlines may call for generous sizing and spacing.
The inline treatment and restrained, classical letterforms convey a polished, boutique tone—more ornamental than utilitarian. It reads as poised and premium, with a subtle vintage-engraving flavor that suggests display typography and curated branding.
The overall intent appears to be a classic serif made more distinctive through an inline engraving, adding luxury and visual texture without changing the underlying, traditional structure. It is designed to attract attention through refinement rather than heaviness, emphasizing elegance and display clarity.
The inline is consistently centered within stems and curves, giving the face a finely crafted, “carved” look that becomes most visible at larger sizes. Numerals share the same slender construction and inline detail, helping headings and titling feel cohesive across letters and figures.
