A delicate, handwritten calligraphic face with a lightly drawn stroke and smooth, rounded terminals. Letterforms lean with a natural cursive slant while remaining largely unconnected, relying on generous loops, entry strokes, and occasional swashes for character. The rhythm is airy and open, with compact lowercase bodies and tall ascenders/descenders that create a graceful vertical cadence. Capitals are the main showpiece, featuring prominent curls and decorative cross-strokes, while numerals follow the same lightly looped, pen-drawn logic.
Works best for short to medium text where its loops and swashes can be appreciated—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, packaging accents, and display lines. It can also serve as a secondary voice for pull quotes or section headers when paired with a plainer text face.
The overall tone feels refined yet personable—like neat penmanship with a playful flourish. Its soft curves and decorative capitals evoke a classic, slightly romantic sensibility, suitable for designs aiming for charm without heavy ornamentation.
The design appears intended to mimic formal, careful handwriting: legible, upright in structure but with a consistent slant and tasteful flourishes. It prioritizes elegance and personality—especially through expressive capitals—while keeping the lowercase comparatively restrained for practical use.
Lowercase forms stay relatively simple compared to the more embellished uppercase, which helps maintain readability in mixed-case settings. The design favors rounded joins and tapered-feeling stroke endings, giving text a buoyant, handwritten texture even in longer passages.
