A slanted, calligraphic roman with pronounced thick–thin modulation and softly flared terminals. Strokes show a broad-nib influence: rounded entry strokes, tapered exits, and occasional teardrop-like ends, creating a lively, handwritten rhythm without connecting letters. Capitals feature restrained swashes and looping forms (notably in letters like J, Q, and R), while the lowercase maintains a consistent cursive slant with compact counters and smooth, continuous curves. Numerals follow the same italic, calligraphic logic, with open curves and gentle hooks that keep them visually aligned with the letters.
Well-suited to display settings such as invitations, event collateral, book or chapter titles, boutique branding, and premium packaging where a formal, handwritten look is desired. It can also work for short quotations or pull quotes when set generously, allowing the contrast and flourishes to remain clear.
The overall tone is formal and expressive, combining a classic, old-world elegance with a personal, penned character. It reads as ceremonial and literary rather than casual, with flourishes that add charm and a slightly romantic, storybook feel.
The font appears designed to emulate a controlled calligraphic hand—balancing legibility with decorative movement—so designers can evoke traditional penmanship and sophistication in modern layouts.
The design relies on contrast and curved stroke endings for its personality, so it presents best when given enough size and spacing to preserve the delicate hairlines and interior shapes. The silhouette is notably animated, with subtle width variation and swash behavior that adds emphasis in initial capitals and select forms.
