A high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines, sharp unbracketed serifs, and strong vertical stress. Many strokes feature a narrow inline cut that reads like an engraved highlight, creating a hollowed, pinstriped effect through the thick stems. Capitals are tall and elegant with crisp joins and generous counters, while the lowercase keeps a relatively modest x-height and delicate terminals that emphasize a precise, drawn-with-a-pen rhythm. Numerals follow the same contrast and inline detailing, mixing slender strokes with bold, sculpted curves.
Best suited to headlines, display typography, and short editorial passages where the inline detailing can be appreciated. It works well for fashion and beauty branding, luxury packaging, event titling, and poster work where high contrast and refined detailing are an asset.
The overall tone is luxe and theatrical, pairing classical elegance with a modern, fashion-forward edge. The inline carving adds a sense of craft—like engraving or letterpress detailing—giving headlines a polished, boutique feel.
Likely designed to reinterpret a classic high-contrast serif through an inline, engraved treatment that adds sparkle and ornamental sophistication. The goal appears to be elevated display impact while retaining familiar, traditional proportions and a composed typographic presence.
The inline detail is most prominent on the heavier verticals and broad curves, producing a shimmering texture in larger settings. In dense text, the extreme hairlines and internal striping can become visually busy, so the design reads best when given size, spacing, and contrast against the background.
