A delicate, calligraphy-driven script with steep rightward slant and dramatic thick–thin modulation. Strokes taper to hairline entry and exit strokes, with rounded bowls, narrow counters, and frequent looped terminals. Capitals are tall and gestural with occasional swashes, while lowercase forms stay compact with short bodies and long, flowing ascenders/descenders that create lively vertical rhythm. Letterforms show a slightly irregular, pen-made texture—especially in joins and pressure changes—giving the set a hand-rendered feel while maintaining consistent overall proportions.
Best suited for short, prominent text where its flourishes and contrast can be appreciated—such as wedding stationery, event invitations, boutique branding, cosmetic or fragrance packaging, and editorial headlines. It can also work for logos or wordmarks where a formal handwritten signature aesthetic is desired.
The font reads as polished and graceful, with a distinctly formal, romantic tone. Its high-contrast penmanship and airy hairlines lend it a luxurious, fashion-forward atmosphere that feels suited to celebratory or boutique contexts rather than utilitarian copy.
The design appears intended to evoke pointed-pen lettering in a controlled, display-oriented script, emphasizing elegance through tall capitals, tapered strokes, and decorative terminals. The overall construction prioritizes expressive rhythm and refined ornament over everyday legibility in long passages.
In the sample text, spacing and connections create a continuous, ribbon-like word shape, while the very fine hairlines and tight internal spaces make the face more sensitive at small sizes or on low-contrast backgrounds. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with several figures using curved spines and tapered terminals for a cohesive, handwritten look.
