A condensed serif with sharply tapered, flared stroke terminals and a continuous inline cut running through the main stems and bowls. Letterforms are tall and narrow with pronounced vertical emphasis, compact sidebearings, and crisp, pointed serifs that read almost wedge-like in places. The internal inline creates a double-stroke effect on many characters, especially in rounded forms (O, C, G) and verticals (H, I, N), giving the design a carved, engraved feel. Curves are smooth and controlled, counters are relatively tight, and the overall rhythm is clean and orderly despite the added interior detailing.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, magazine titling, posters, and brand marks where its narrow width and inline detailing can be appreciated. It also fits upscale packaging and signage applications that benefit from an engraved or boutique aesthetic; for longer passages, it will read more like a decorative editorial accent than a workhorse text face.
The inline treatment adds a sense of luxury and spectacle, evoking fashion mastheads, vintage display titling, and engraved signage. Its narrow proportions feel poised and intentional, projecting a refined, slightly theatrical tone that suits premium or dramatic messaging.
Likely designed to deliver a classic condensed serif silhouette enhanced by an inline cut, creating a premium, engraved look with strong vertical presence. The goal appears to be high-impact display typography that feels traditional in structure but more distinctive through internal detailing.
The inline appears consistently centered through key strokes, creating strong light-catching highlights at text sizes while remaining visually intricate. Numerals follow the same tall, condensed proportions and benefit from the inline detailing, reinforcing a cohesive, ornamental display voice across letters and figures.
