A flowing script with a pronounced rightward slant and calligraphic, brush-like stroke behavior. Letterforms show strong thick–thin modulation, with slender hairlines, tapered terminals, and occasional entry/exit flicks that create a lively baseline rhythm. Capitals are tall and gestural with looped forms and extended strokes, while lowercase remains compact with a notably small x-height, helping ascenders and descenders dominate the texture. Spacing is relatively open for a script, and connections are suggested through rhythm and stroke direction rather than consistently linked joins.
Best suited to display use such as logos, boutique branding, wedding suites, invitations, and product packaging where its thin hairlines and swashy forms can be appreciated. It also works well for short headlines, pull quotes, and signature-style accents, while extended small text may lose clarity due to the delicate strokes and compact lowercase.
The overall tone feels elegant and romantic, balancing refined calligraphy with an informal, handwritten ease. Its swashy capitals and delicate hairlines lend a boutique, personal character suited to expressive, intimate messaging.
Likely designed to emulate quick, confident brush calligraphy with an emphasis on graceful capitals, strong stroke modulation, and a sparkling, fashion-forward texture for expressive display typography.
The design leans on long ascenders and deep descenders for drama, and the contrast in stroke weight makes the texture sparkle at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with light hairlines and subtle curves that keep them visually consistent with the letters.
