A stylized display serif with tall, narrow proportions and smooth, tapered terminals. Strokes are carved with a consistent inline channel that creates a fluted, engraved effect, often running vertically through stems and curving along bowls. Curves are clean and geometric, with pointed joins on A, M, N, V, and W, and rounded, near-oval forms for O and Q. The rhythm is compact with tight apertures and a slightly formal, poster-like construction; numerals follow the same carved detailing, with an especially distinctive 0 and 8 built from enclosed ovals.
Best suited to display settings where the carved inline can be appreciated: headlines, posters, event materials, and brand marks. It also fits upscale packaging and editorial openers that want a vintage, decorative voice without resorting to heavy ornament.
The inline carving and narrow, high-contrast-in-feel silhouette evoke Art Deco signage, vintage cinema titling, and luxe packaging. It reads as poised and theatrical—more glamorous than utilitarian—bringing a sense of period sophistication and staged drama to headlines.
Likely designed to emulate engraved or inlaid lettering with an Art Deco sensibility, using a consistent inline cut to add depth and sparkle while keeping the letterforms narrow and stage-ready for titling.
The inline detail is a primary visual feature and remains prominent even at larger text sizes; at smaller sizes the interior channel may visually fill in. Uppercase forms feel particularly emblematic and architectural, while lowercase maintains the same engraved motif with simplified, upright shapes that keep the overall texture crisp and controlled.
