A flowing handwritten script with slender, high-contrast strokes and a gently bouncy baseline rhythm. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with long ascenders and descenders and a relatively small x-height, giving the face an airy, vertical look. Strokes show pen-like modulation and tapered terminals, while many capitals and select lowercase letters feature restrained swashes, loops, and occasional entry/exit curls; overall connectivity varies, with some letters linking and others sitting as discrete shapes depending on the joins.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text such as wedding or event invitations, boutique logos, product packaging, social graphics, and pull quotes. The narrow proportions and decorative capitals can help fit longer names or phrases into limited space while still feeling ornate; for long body copy, its flourish and contrast may become visually busy.
The font reads as graceful and decorative, balancing refinement with a playful, personable character. Its curls and soft terminals evoke a slightly vintage, boutique feel suited to expressive, celebratory messaging rather than utilitarian text.
Designed to emulate neat, formal pen lettering with a contemporary smoothness, emphasizing elegant verticality, expressive capitals, and decorative loops to create a premium handwritten signature effect.
Uppercase letters are especially stylized, with prominent curves on forms like A, J, Q, and Z that add display impact. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, using thin-to-thick transitions and occasional curved hooks, helping them blend into headline settings.
