A delicate handwritten script with predominantly monoline strokes and gently tapered terminals. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with generous ascenders and descenders and a noticeably small x-height, creating a light, vertical rhythm. Curves are smooth and rounded with occasional looped entries/exits and simple, unembellished joins, while capitals are larger and more expressive with elongated strokes. Numerals and punctuation follow the same slender, drawn-with-a-pen feel, keeping an overall consistent, airy texture.
Well-suited for invitations, greeting cards, short quotes, and lifestyle branding where a personal, handwritten touch is desired. It also works for headers, pull quotes, and light packaging accents, especially when set at medium-to-large sizes to maintain clarity.
The tone is soft and personable, like neat, relaxed handwriting on a note or invitation. Its tall, slender forms and subtle loops give it a whimsical, romantic flavor without becoming overly ornate, making it feel approachable and lightly elegant.
The design appears intended to mimic clean, modern pen handwriting—light, narrow, and gently expressive—balancing casual charm with enough consistency for repeated text. Emphasis is placed on tall proportions, simple looping gestures, and a restrained script flow that feels informal yet polished.
Spacing appears intentionally loose in places to preserve the handwritten cadence, and the narrow structure helps lines feel tidy even at larger sizes. The contrast comes more from stroke taper and curvature than from heavy weight changes, so the font reads best where its fine detail won’t be lost.
