A high-contrast serif with generous proportions and crisp, sculpted letterforms. Strokes are solid but feature a consistent inline channel that reads as a carved highlight through stems, bowls, and diagonals, giving the shapes a dimensional, engraved look. Serifs are prominent and bracketed, with sharp terminals and a stately, slightly expanded stance. The overall rhythm is steady and upright, with clear counters and a polished, print-forward finish that remains legible at larger sizes.
Best suited to display settings where the inline cut can be appreciated—headlines, editorial titles, book and album covers, event programs, invitations, and premium packaging. It can work for short passages at comfortable sizes, but the decorative channeling is most effective in larger typography and high-quality print or crisp digital rendering.
The inline detailing lends a refined, ceremonial tone, reminiscent of engraved stationery, traditional book titling, and heritage signage. It feels authoritative and classic, with a touch of decorative sophistication that elevates otherwise conventional serif forms.
The design appears intended to merge a traditional serif foundation with an inline, engraved effect to add depth and ornament without resorting to excessive flourish. It prioritizes a classic, authoritative voice while providing a distinctive texture for branding and titling.
Uppercase forms present strong vertical emphasis and confident spacing, while the lowercase keeps familiar text-seriffing cues but retains the inline treatment for consistent texture. Numerals match the same engraved contrast, making the set feel cohesive for headings and figure-heavy layouts.
