A flowing, calligraphic script with a pronounced rightward slant and high-contrast strokes that shift between hairline upstrokes and fuller, brushlike downstrokes. Letterforms are narrow to moderately open with long, sweeping entries and exits, and several capitals feature extended swashes and curved terminals. The lowercase has a notably small body relative to tall ascenders, with rounded counters and a rhythmic, handwritten baseline that gently undulates. Numerals follow the same cursive logic, using smooth curves and tapered terminals for a cohesive set.
Best suited for short display text such as logos, boutique branding, invitations, greeting cards, and social graphics where its swashed capitals and contrast can be appreciated. It can also work for headings or pull quotes when set with generous spacing and ample line height, rather than dense paragraph settings.
The overall tone is graceful and expressive, balancing refinement with a distinctly personal, handwritten feel. Its energetic stroke modulation and sweeping capitals give it a romantic, celebratory character suited to signatures and prominent display lines.
Designed to emulate quick, confident pen or brush lettering with a fashionable slant and dramatic stroke contrast. The set emphasizes expressive capitals, tapered joins, and a compact lowercase to create a distinctive handwritten voice for display-driven typography.
Connectivity is intermittent: many letters suggest joining through entry/exit strokes, while others remain loosely separated depending on spacing, reinforcing an organic written rhythm. The most successful texture appears at larger sizes where the thin hairlines and sharp contrast remain clear and the swashes have room to breathe.
