A serif typeface with sharp, bracketed serifs and a carved inline running through most stems and bowls, giving the letters an engraved, double-stroked look. Curves are smooth and fairly open, with clear counters and a steady, classical rhythm across caps and lowercase. Strokes show moderate thick–thin modulation, while the inline introduces a consistent interior highlight that stays centered through straights and rounds. Numerals and punctuation carry the same incised treatment, producing a cohesive, decorative texture at text and display sizes.
This design is best used where the inline engraving can be appreciated: headlines, titles, and short blocks of text in editorial layouts. It also suits premium packaging, menus, event materials, and formal announcements where a classic serif voice with added ornamentation is desirable.
The inline detailing evokes engraved lettering and traditional print craftsmanship, lending the font a refined, slightly theatrical presence. It reads as classic and formal, with a touch of vintage ornament that feels suited to prestigious or ceremonial messaging.
The font appears designed to merge a traditional serif foundation with an incised inline effect, providing a decorative, engraved character while keeping letterforms familiar and readable. The goal seems to be elevated display typography that signals heritage and craftsmanship without becoming overly elaborate.
The overall color is lively because the interior cut line breaks up stems and bowls, creating sparkle and a lighter perceived weight without losing the solidity of the main strokes. Caps feel stately and well-proportioned, while the lowercase maintains good readability thanks to generous apertures and distinct forms.
