A tall, slender serif design built from extremely thin outer strokes with a consistent inline cut running through the main stems, creating a hollowed, engraved look. Serifs are crisp and restrained, while curves stay smooth and controlled, giving capitals a stately, column-like posture and keeping rounds (C, O, Q) clean and airy. The lowercase is similarly narrow and delicate with a notably small x-height, emphasizing ascenders and descenders and producing a vertical, rhythmic texture. Numerals follow the same fine-line construction, with open counters and an ornamental, slightly calligraphic silhouette.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, titling, logotypes, invitations, and premium packaging where the inline engraving can be appreciated. It will especially shine at larger sizes and in short phrases where the tall proportions and refined detailing read as intentional ornament rather than texture.
The overall tone feels formal and decorative, like lettering intended for invitations or period-inspired display. The inline carving adds a sense of craftsmanship—evoking engraved metalwork, fashion mastheads, and Art Deco-era refinement—while the hairline structure keeps it light and poised rather than heavy or rustic.
This font appears designed to deliver a luxe, engraved inline aesthetic within a slender serif framework—prioritizing elegance, verticality, and decorative detail for statement typography. The combination of hairline outlines and a carved interior line suggests an intent to reference classic engraving and early 20th-century display lettering while remaining crisp and contemporary in construction.
The inline channel remains visible even in tight joins and along curves, which heightens the ornamental character but also makes the design feel more display-oriented than utilitarian. In longer text, the narrow set and delicate stroke structure produce a light, airy color with pronounced vertical emphasis.
