A tall, slender handwritten script with pronounced stroke modulation and long vertical stems. Letterforms are mostly upright with gently tapered terminals, occasional hairline cross-strokes, and a mix of open curves and narrow counters that keep the texture light and airy. The alphabet shows a semi-connected construction: many lowercase characters suggest cursive joining, while others read as discrete forms, creating a lively, hand-drawn rhythm. Capitals are especially elongated and loop-prone, giving the set a distinctive, decorative silhouette.
Best suited to short, expressive settings where its tall, elegant shapes can breathe—such as invitations, event stationery, product packaging, and boutique brand marks. It also works well for headings or pull quotes where the decorative capitals and airy texture can serve as the focal point.
The overall tone is refined yet playful—like modern calligraphy filtered through a slightly vintage, storybook sensibility. Its thin hairlines and tall proportions feel graceful and intimate, with a touch of quirkiness in the irregular joins and varied letter widths.
The design appears intended to capture a hand-lettered, formal-script look while keeping a light, graceful color on the page. Its high verticality, delicate terminals, and intermittent connectivity suggest a display-forward script meant to add personality and sophistication rather than maximize continuous-text readability.
The figures and punctuation adopt the same thin–thick contrast and narrow stance, matching the font’s light, drawn quality. In text, the strong vertical emphasis and delicate connecting strokes create an expressive line, with occasional dramatic swashes (notably in several capitals) that can dominate at smaller sizes.
