A slanted, high-contrast serif with sharply tapered joins and pronounced thick–thin modulation. The letterforms read as wide and display-oriented, with small internal counters, a relatively low x-height, and gently swelling curves that terminate in fine, pointed serifs. Strokes are embellished by an internal inline cut that runs through stems and bowls, creating an engraved, dimensional effect without breaking the overall silhouette. Rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in width, with many characters featuring subtle swash-like curls and hooked terminals that reinforce the italic movement.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short display settings where the inline carving can be appreciated at size. It can work well for branding, packaging, invitations, and poster typography that benefits from an engraved, high-style look rather than continuous-reading comfort.
The overall tone is refined and dramatic, evoking engraved lettering, classic editorial fashion, and vintage signage. Its inline detail adds a sense of craft and flourish, giving text a ceremonial, slightly theatrical presence.
The design appears intended to merge a high-fashion italic serif structure with an engraved inline treatment, producing a decorative display face that feels luxurious and crafted. Its proportions and flourish suggest emphasis on visual impact and stylistic personality over neutral text utility.
In longer passages the bright inline channel becomes a dominant texture, especially where thick strokes cluster, so spacing and size strongly influence clarity. Numerals and capitals carry the same engraved treatment and sharp contrast, making the style feel cohesive across headings and mixed-case settings.
