A delicate cursive script with a strongly slanted, pen-written rhythm and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Forms are narrow and tall with long ascenders and descenders, giving the design a vertical, elegant silhouette. Strokes taper into fine hairlines, with smooth entry/exit terminals and occasional looped joins; many capitals use extended lead-in or cross-strokes that add flourish without becoming overly dense. Spacing and letterfit feel lively and handwritten, with variable character widths and a lightly bouncing baseline impression in text.
This font suits short, prominent text where elegance is the priority—such as invitations, wedding collateral, greeting cards, beauty or boutique branding, and premium packaging. It also works well for headings, signatures, and pull quotes when set with generous size and spacing to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is refined and intimate, evoking handwritten notes and formal invitations. Its thin hairlines and gentle swashes read as graceful and romantic, with a classic, boutique sensibility rather than a bold or playful one.
The design appears intended to emulate formal, modern calligraphy with a handwritten flow: high-contrast strokes, refined loops, and selectively swashed capitals that add personality while keeping running text cohesive.
Capitals show the most ornamentation, while lowercase remains relatively restrained and legible for a script. Numerals are similarly slender and calligraphic, matching the letterforms with tapered curves and a light, airy presence.
