A serif display face with sharply flared terminals and pronounced thick–thin modulation, reinforced by a fine inline cut that runs through many strokes like an engraved highlight. The capitals are tall and compact with crisp wedge/bracket-like serifs and tapered joins, while curves (C, G, O, Q) show tight, controlled bowls and clean, smooth outer contours. Lowercase forms keep a moderate x-height and narrow rhythm, with slim arches and vertical emphasis; counters are relatively tight, and the inline detail adds texture without turning the letters into outlines. Numerals follow the same vertical, high-contrast construction, reading best at larger sizes where the internal linework stays clear.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, poster titles, magazine mastheads, and packaging where the inline engraving can be appreciated. It also works well for book covers, event branding, and short editorial callouts that benefit from a dramatic, upscale serif presence.
The overall tone feels formal and stage-ready—an attention-grabbing, old-world elegance with a slightly ornamental, engraved finish. The inline accent gives it a refined, boutique quality that reads as premium and slightly nostalgic rather than purely minimalist.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic high-contrast serif silhouette with an engraved inline treatment, creating a premium display look that stands out through both stroke contrast and internal detailing. Its compact width and assertive serifs suggest an emphasis on impact and elegance in large-scale settings.
The inline carving creates a strong light-catching effect that can darken in dense settings; generous tracking and ample point size help preserve the internal detail. The design’s narrow proportions and tall capitals create a stately cadence, especially in headline phrases and short bursts of text.
