A flowing, calligraphic script with a pronounced rightward slant and dramatic thick–thin modulation. Strokes taper to fine hairlines with pointed terminals, while heavier downstrokes create a rhythmic, engraved feel. Letterforms feature generous entry/exit strokes, long ascenders and descenders, and frequent loops and swashes, especially in capitals. Lowercase is compact with a notably short x-height, and overall spacing and widths vary to maintain a lively handwritten cadence.
Best suited to short, prominent text where the flourished capitals and high-contrast strokes can be appreciated—wedding suites, formal invitations, certificates, boutique branding, and premium packaging. It can also work for headings or pull quotes when set with ample size and spacing to preserve the fine hairlines.
The font projects a polished, ceremonial tone—graceful and romantic with a classic, old-world sensibility. Its sweeping capitals and delicate hairlines feel luxurious and personal, evoking formal invitations, signatures, and traditional calligraphy.
Designed to emulate formal penmanship with expressive swashes and a strong contrast structure, prioritizing elegance and display impact over utilitarian text readability. The variable widths and compact lowercase help maintain a handwritten rhythm while allowing ornate capitals to serve as focal points.
Capitals are the primary display feature, using extended flourishes and layered curves that can dominate a line at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic with slanted forms and tapered terminals, visually consistent with the letterforms.
