A tall, slender handwritten script with a lightly calligraphic rhythm and prominent looped strokes. Letterforms are upright with a bouncy baseline, narrow overall proportions, and generous vertical extenders that give the design a stretched, elegant silhouette. Strokes show noticeable contrast from thin hairlines to thicker downstrokes, with soft terminals and occasional entry/exit flicks that suggest pen movement rather than rigid geometry. The lowercase features small bodies with relatively short x-height, while ascenders and descenders are long and expressive, producing an airy texture in text.
This face is well suited to short-to-medium display settings such as branding marks, boutique packaging, invitations, greeting cards, and editorial pull quotes. It works best at sizes where the thin hairlines and looped joins have room to resolve, and where the tall, narrow rhythm can be used as a distinctive stylistic accent.
The font conveys a friendly, whimsical tone—casual and personable, yet neat enough to feel intentional and curated. Its narrow, elongated forms and looping details add a touch of quirky elegance that reads as handmade and inviting.
The design appears intended to emulate a personal, pen-written script with a refined, elongated profile—balancing legibility with expressive loops and stroke variation. Its consistency across the alphabet and figures suggests a display script meant to add character and a handcrafted signature-like feel to titles and featured text.
Spacing appears relatively open for such narrow letterforms, helping counters stay clear and preventing the script from feeling congested. Capitals are especially tall and decorative, offering strong presence for initials and headings, while numerals follow the same narrow, gently curved, hand-drawn logic.
