A delicate, handwritten script with a right-leaning slant and a lively, pen-drawn rhythm. Strokes stay mostly fine and monoline with subtle thick–thin modulation, while entry/exit strokes frequently taper into hairline terminals. Letterforms are tall and narrow with long ascenders and descenders, and many capitals use open loops and extended strokes that add flourish without becoming overly ornate. Spacing is irregular in a natural way, and connections vary—some letters join smoothly while others break into separate strokes, reinforcing an authentic handwritten feel.
Well suited for short, prominent text where its elegant loops and narrow proportions can shine—such as logos, boutique branding, packaging labels, invitations, and editorial or social headlines. It can also work for signature-style callouts and pull quotes, especially at larger sizes where the fine strokes and small lowercase are easier to read.
The overall tone is graceful and intimate, balancing refinement with a casual, personal touch. Its looping capitals and airy stroke weight give it a romantic, boutique-like voice that feels human and expressive rather than rigid or formal.
The design appears intended to capture a polished, modern handwritten signature look—tall, slender, and fluid—while keeping strokes light and responsive like pen on paper. Its embellished capitals suggest a focus on expressive display typography rather than long-form reading.
Several capitals feature prominent swashes and high contrast between long, sweeping curves and fine connecting lines, which can create distinctive word shapes. The very small lowercase body relative to ascenders makes the texture feel light and vertical, and the numerals follow the same handwritten logic with simple, slightly uneven forms.
