A slanted, calligraphic script with high-contrast strokes that move between fine hairlines and fuller, brush-like downstrokes. Letterforms are compact and upright in rhythm despite the italic angle, with a relatively small x-height and prominent ascenders and descenders that create an elegant vertical cadence. Terminals are tapered and often slightly hooked, with occasional swash-like entry and exit strokes. Edges show subtle irregularity and ink-like texture, giving the outlines a gently worn, printed feel while remaining legible at display sizes.
Best suited for display typography where its contrast, texture, and cursive motion can read clearly—such as invitations, branding marks, product labels, and editorial or event headlines. It can work in short phrases or emphasized pull quotes, especially when a vintage or handcrafted tone is desired.
The font conveys a classic, romantic tone with a touch of aged charm, like formal handwriting captured through imperfect ink and paper. Its contrast and flowing joins feel refined and ceremonial, while the slight roughness adds character and nostalgia rather than polish.
The design appears intended to emulate expressive, formal brush-pen lettering with a lightly distressed finish, balancing elegance with tactile, imperfect texture for thematic and decorative typography.
Capitals lean toward traditional script structures with looped bowls and modest flourishes that help lead the eye through words. Numerals follow the same cursive logic, with angled stress and tapered ends, supporting cohesive use in headings and short lines.
