A flowing, brush-like script with a right-leaning slant and pronounced contrast between thick downstrokes and fine hairlines. Letterforms are narrow and lively, with variable stroke width, tapered terminals, and frequent looped entry/exit strokes that create a semi-connected rhythm. Capitals are prominent and decorative, often featuring extended curves and occasional swash-like crossings, while lowercase forms keep a compact body with tall ascenders and distinct, open counters.
Best suited to display settings where its contrast and loops can read clearly, such as wedding materials, beauty and lifestyle branding, product packaging, and short promotional copy. It works well for logos and headlines paired with a simple sans or serif for supporting text, and is less ideal for long passages or very small UI sizes.
The overall tone feels personable and expressive, mixing a polished calligraphic sensibility with an informal, handwritten bounce. Its looping strokes and dramatic thick–thin shifts lend a romantic, boutique feel, while the slightly irregular rhythm keeps it approachable rather than formal.
Likely designed to deliver a modern, brush-calligraphy look that feels both refined and handmade, emphasizing expressive capitals, flowing connections, and high-contrast strokes for impact in short-form typography.
The design relies on delicate hairlines and tight inner spaces in several letters, which can visually fill in at smaller sizes or on low-resolution outputs. Numerals and capitals show the most personality, with curving forms and occasional flourish that can become a focal point in a line of text.
