A slender, monoline handwritten script with a pronounced rightward slant and tall, narrow proportions. Strokes feel pen-drawn with gently tapering terminals, occasional soft hooks, and looping forms in letters like g, y, and f. The uppercase set mixes simple, single-stroke constructions with a few more flourishy shapes, while lowercase forms stay light and flowing with modest connections and open counters. Overall rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in a natural handwriting way, with long ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase bodies.
Works best for short, expressive copy such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique packaging, social graphics, and logo-like wordmarks. It can also serve as an accent face paired with a sturdier sans or serif for longer text blocks.
The tone reads friendly and personal, like neat journal handwriting with a touch of elegance. Its thin strokes and looping details add an airy, whimsical character that can feel romantic or boutique-like without becoming overly formal.
Likely designed to capture a clean, contemporary cursive handwriting feel—thin, tall, and graceful—suited to decorative headlines and personal, crafted messaging where a human touch is desired.
At text sizes, the narrow build and delicate strokes emphasize verticality, while the generous loops and extended descenders create an animated baseline. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, keeping a simple, lightly stylized look that blends well with the letters.
