A flowing handwritten script with a delicate, pen-drawn construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are tall and slender with generous ascenders/descenders, compact lowercase bodies, and rounded loops that create a lively rhythm across words. Strokes taper into fine terminals and occasional hairline entry/exit strokes, while bowls and joins stay smooth and continuous for a lightly connected, cursive texture. Capital letters introduce more flourish through extended curves and soft swashes, giving headings an expressive silhouette without becoming overly dense.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as logos, product labels, invitations, social graphics, and pull quotes where the fine terminals and looping joins can be appreciated. It performs especially well in display sizes for romantic or boutique contexts, and can add personality to headers or accent lines when paired with a simpler text face.
The font conveys a graceful, personable tone—equal parts refined and playful. Its looping forms and buoyant movement feel friendly and romantic, suggesting handwritten notes, boutique branding, and celebratory messaging rather than utilitarian text.
Designed to emulate elegant everyday handwriting with a calligraphic edge—tall, slender forms, smooth connections, and expressive capitals that add flourish while keeping a light, legible flow in words.
The contrasty strokes and thin terminals create an airy sparkle at larger sizes, while the narrow proportions keep word shapes compact. Numerals and capitals maintain the same handwritten character with rounded forms and subtle flourish, supporting cohesive display settings.
