Look into the X Resources node in Emacs' info page. You can also set  
initial-frame-alist and default-frame-alist or switch off toolbar and  
menubar and scrollbar and use an (almost) unreadable font in mode- 
line ... Probably there are X11 window managers that allow to set the  
size of the (X) window's (or Emacs frame's) title bar.

Also check text with C-u C-x = and then choose the customise hyper- 
link to change font, size, colour –  at least in GNU Emacs 23.x it  
works this way. In GNU Emacs 22 it's possible to select the "face  
name" to enter a *Help* buffer which then allows to finally choose  
"(customize this face)."
