A flowing, calligraphic script with a pronounced rightward slant and lively stroke modulation. Forms are built from rounded bowls and tapering entry/exit strokes, with teardrop terminals and occasional extended swashes that give letters a rhythmic, handwritten cadence. Capitals are more gestural and decorative than the lowercase, using broad curves and looped strokes that create a strong headline presence while maintaining consistent pen-like contrast across the set. Overall spacing feels compact and continuous, with letterforms that suggest connection even when not fully joined.
Well suited to short-to-medium display settings where flourish and motion are desirable—logos, labels, invitations, and cover lines. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers when ample size and generous line spacing are available to preserve the detail in its curves and terminals.
The tone is polished and expressive, reading as classic and romantic rather than casual. Its energetic curves and confident swashes add a celebratory, boutique feel suited to graceful, personality-forward typography.
Likely intended to evoke formal penmanship with a contemporary, streamlined rhythm—delivering an expressive script voice that feels premium and decorative while remaining cohesive across letters and numerals.
Several capitals lean into ornate loop structures and open counters, creating distinctive silhouettes. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic with curving strokes and soft terminals, harmonizing well with the letters for mixed text settings.
