A formal script with a pronounced rightward slant and very high stroke contrast, moving between hairline entry strokes and heavier downstrokes. Letterforms are narrow and rhythmically spaced, with smooth, continuous curves and frequent looped terminals. Capitals are ornate and varied, featuring long ascenders, curled beginnings, and occasional swash-like extensions, while lowercase forms keep a compact, very short x-height with tall ascenders and deep descenders. The overall texture is crisp and airy, with tapered joins and a pen-written feel that favors graceful curves over rigid geometry.
Best suited to display use where its contrast and delicate hairlines can be preserved—wedding and event stationery, greeting cards, beauty or boutique branding, and elegant packaging. It can work well for short headlines, names, and signature-style marks, especially in mixed case, but is less appropriate for dense body text or very small UI sizes.
The tone is formal and polished, evoking traditional calligraphy and invitation lettering. It feels romantic and celebratory, with a lightly playful flourish in the looped capitals and curving descenders. The strong contrast and slim proportions give it a refined, upscale character.
Designed to emulate a formal, pen-written script with strong contrast and decorative capitals, prioritizing elegance and flourish for statement typography. The compact lowercase and tall extenders aim to create a classic calligraphic silhouette that reads as luxurious and ceremonial.
Some glyphs show pronounced entry/exit strokes and occasional unconnected behavior in all-caps settings, while mixed-case text reads more cohesively. The numeral set follows the same calligraphic logic, with curving figures and thin hairline details that emphasize elegance over utilitarian clarity at small sizes.
