A lightly weighted, right-leaning calligraphic serif with gently modulated strokes and a soft, pen-like rhythm. Forms show flared terminals and subtle bracketed serifs, with frequent entry/exit swashes that curl into small hooks on many letters. Curves are generous and open, counters stay clear at text sizes, and the overall texture remains airy due to the thin strokes and wide letterforms. Numerals follow the same cursive influence with round, flowing shapes and modest contrast.
Well-suited for invitations, announcements, certificates, and other formal stationery where an elegant italic is desired. It also works effectively for book titles, pull quotes, brand marks, and packaging accents, especially when used at display sizes or for short to medium-length text where the swash detail can be appreciated.
The font conveys a formal, cultivated tone—suggesting classic correspondence, invitations, and editorial elegance. Its soft swashes and italic motion add a courteous, romantic flavor without becoming overly ornate, keeping the voice readable and composed.
The design appears intended to evoke a traditional calligraphic italic in a tidy, printable form—adding flourish and personality while retaining a disciplined serif structure for clear typesetting.
Capitals are particularly decorative, featuring prominent curved strokes and flourish-like terminals that stand out in display settings. Lowercase maintains a consistent slanted ductus with occasional looped details, creating a lively baseline while preserving legibility. Spacing feels comfortable and slightly expansive, supporting a smooth reading line in short passages.
