A flowing script with a pronounced rightward slant and dramatic stroke modulation, moving from hairline entrances to sharper, heavier downstrokes. Letterforms are compact and vertically oriented, with long ascenders/descenders and frequent entry/exit strokes that create a continuous, pen-written rhythm in text. Counters are small and teardrop-like, terminals are tapered and pointed, and many capitals feature extended loops and swashes that add lateral movement without becoming overly dense.
Well suited to display settings where an elegant handwritten voice is desired—wedding and event invitations, greeting cards, certificates, and boutique branding. It performs best in short phrases, names, and headlines where the swashes and contrast can be appreciated; for longer passages, generous spacing and larger sizes help maintain clarity.
The overall tone is refined and expressive, evoking traditional penmanship and invitation-style calligraphy. Its high-contrast rhythm and flourished capitals give it a romantic, ceremonial feel with a distinctly vintage polish.
Designed to emulate classic pointed-pen cursive with a strong calligraphic contrast and ornate capitals, aiming for a graceful, formal signature-like effect in display typography.
Capitals are notably more decorative than lowercase, with oversized loops and prominent lead-in strokes that can dominate at small sizes. Numerals follow the same slanted, calligraphic construction, with several forms using open curves and tapered terminals that prioritize style over strict uniformity.
