A flowing cursive script with a steep rightward slant and lively, brush-like modulation. Strokes move between hairline upstrokes and fuller downstrokes, creating crisp contrast and an overall light, airy color on the page. Letterforms are tall and compact with narrow proportions, rounded terminals, and frequent entry/exit strokes that encourage joining in lowercase. Capitals are more open and gesture-driven, using long curves and occasional cross strokes, while numerals follow the same handwritten rhythm with soft curves and tapered ends.
Best suited for short display lines such as logos, boutique branding, product packaging, invitations, and social media graphics where its delicate contrast and swashy movement can be appreciated. It works well for names, titles, and pull quotes, but will be less comfortable for long passages or very small sizes due to fine strokes and tight interior spaces.
The font reads as graceful and personable, balancing elegance with an informal handwritten immediacy. Its high-contrast, sweeping forms give it a romantic, boutique tone suited to expressive display settings rather than utilitarian text.
Designed to emulate quick, confident brush-pen handwriting with a polished, calligraphic finish. The intent appears to be a stylish script that feels personal and premium while remaining fluid and legible in short phrases.
Rhythm is smooth and continuous, with consistent slant and a noticeable baseline bounce that adds charm. Many forms rely on narrow counters and delicate joins, so spacing and size will strongly affect clarity in dense settings.
