A delicate, pen-drawn script with a consistent rightward slant and long, fluid strokes. Letterforms are built from slender, mostly monoline lines with subtle thick–thin modulation and gently tapered terminals. The rhythm is loose and bouncy, with narrow proportions, tall ascenders, and compact lowercase bodies that leave plenty of white space between strokes. Capitals are simplified and loop-prone, often formed with single sweeping gestures, while numerals are equally light and handwritten in feel.
Well suited for short, expressive settings such as invitations, greeting cards, personal stationery, pull quotes, and social media graphics. It also works as a complementary accent on packaging or branding materials where a light handwritten note is desired, especially at display sizes where the loops and tall proportions can breathe.
The overall tone is graceful and personable, reading like quick, confident handwriting rather than formal calligraphy. Its light touch and looping gestures give it a friendly, romantic character that feels modern and informal.
Designed to capture an effortless handwritten signature feel—light, quick, and expressive—while remaining legible in short phrases. The narrow, slanted construction and looping capitals suggest an emphasis on elegance and motion over strict formality.
Connections between lowercase letters appear selective rather than strictly continuous, helping maintain clarity at small sizes while preserving a handwritten flow. The glyph set shows consistent slant and stroke behavior, with occasional extended entry/exit strokes that add motion and a slightly whimsical cadence in running text.
