An outlined serif with an engraved, pen-drawn feel, built from a thin outer contour and a delicate inner inline that creates a hollow, double-stroked effect. Letterforms show sharp, bracketed serifs and tapered terminals, with pronounced modulation and narrow joins that give the strokes a lively, slightly hand-rendered rhythm. Proportions lean classical: capitals are elegant and stately, lowercase is compact with a relatively small x-height, and counters remain open despite the outline construction. Numerals follow the same ornamental logic, mixing crisp edges with subtle flare and curvature.
Best suited to display typography such as headlines, title treatments, packaging, and event materials where the outline detail can be appreciated. It can also work for short passages like pull quotes or chapter openings when set generously with ample size and spacing.
The tone is antique and editorial, evoking Victorian display typography, book plates, and engraved title pages. Its airy outline and calligraphic stress add a refined, slightly dramatic character suited to nostalgic or storybook contexts.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic high-contrast serif forms through an outline-and-inline construction, producing a period-inspired, engraved look that reads as decorative and premium in display settings.
The inline/outline detailing creates a shimmering texture in paragraphs and makes the font feel more illustrative than utilitarian. At smaller sizes the interior line and tight details may visually merge, while larger settings emphasize the crafted contours and serif shapes.
