A delicate, calligraphic script with a consistent hairline stroke and smooth, continuous motion. Letterforms are tall and slender with generous ascenders and descenders, tight internal counters, and frequent entry/exit strokes that create a naturally connected rhythm in words. Capitals are more expressive and looped, often built from long sweeping curves, while lowercase maintains a narrow, upright-leaning cursive structure with occasional extended terminals. Numerals follow the same thin, flowing construction, keeping the set visually cohesive.
Well-suited to short, prominent text where its looping capitals and slender rhythm can shine—wedding materials, invitations, stationery, greeting cards, and signature-style branding. It also works for pull quotes and headings when set with ample tracking and line spacing. For longer passages or small sizes, its petite x-height and thin strokes may reduce readability, so it’s best used as an accent rather than a workhorse text face.
The overall tone feels intimate and graceful, like careful handwritten correspondence. Its looping capitals and long, taperless strokes give it a romantic, slightly formal personality without becoming rigid. The lightness and vertical elegance suggest delicacy and finesse rather than boldness or utility.
Designed to emulate refined, fast-moving cursive handwriting with a clean, consistent pen line and expressive capitals. The emphasis appears to be on graceful word shapes and a personal, handwritten feel for display typography.
Spacing appears intentionally compact, with connections and close sidebearings helping words read as a continuous line. The very small x-height relative to tall ascenders makes mixed-case text feel airy and high-contrast in silhouette even with a restrained stroke. Some letters feature pronounced swashes and extended cross strokes, which adds flourish but can increase the chance of collisions in tight settings.
