A slanted calligraphic script with flowing, mostly connected construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Strokes taper to hairline entries and exits, while downstrokes swell with a brush-pen feel, creating a lively rhythm and uneven, naturalistic texture. Letterforms are compact and vertical in footprint with long, sweeping ascenders/descenders, frequent loops, and occasional extended terminals; capitals are especially expressive with prominent swashes and open counters.
Best used at display sizes for invitations, greeting cards, wedding stationery, beauty or lifestyle branding, and short headlines where its swashes and contrast can be appreciated. It also works for logo wordmarks and packaging accents, especially when paired with a simple sans or serif for supporting text.
The overall tone is graceful and celebratory, balancing softness with a polished, formal air. Its light, fluttering hairlines and looping gestures give it a romantic, hand-finished character suited to personable, boutique-oriented design.
The design appears intended to emulate modern calligraphy with a brush-pen sensibility: expressive capitals, fluid connections, and decorative terminals that add personality while remaining legible in short phrases.
Capitals vary more dramatically than lowercase, with several showing dramatic entry strokes and long finishing tails that can create distinctive word shapes. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, mixing bold downstrokes with fine hairline turns for a consistent, handwritten cadence across text.
