A delicate, calligraphic script with hairline-thin strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are strongly right-slanted with long, tapering entry and exit strokes, creating a fast, continuous rhythm in words. Capitals are large and expressive, often built from single sweeping gestures with occasional loops and extended cross-strokes, while lowercase forms stay compact with a notably small x-height and tall ascenders. The overall color is light and open, with variable character widths and generous interior counters that keep the texture from closing up despite frequent connections.
Best used at larger sizes where the thin hairlines and high contrast can remain crisp—such as logotypes, signature treatments, invitation suites, beauty or fashion packaging, and short headlines. It is less suited to dense paragraphs or small UI text where the very fine strokes and compact lowercase could fade or tangle.
The font conveys a graceful, intimate tone—more like a quick, confident signature than a formal copperplate. Its fine lines and sweeping capitals feel romantic and upscale, suggesting personal notes, boutique branding, and elegant display settings.
The design appears intended to capture an elegant handwritten voice with dramatic, swashy capitals and a light, high-contrast pen feel. Its emphasis on motion, tapering terminals, and compact lowercase suggests a focus on stylish display typography that feels personal and premium.
Some joins are intentionally loose, letting strokes overlap or pass through one another in a sketch-like way that reads as handwritten rather than mechanically uniform. Numerals follow the same cursive logic with slanted, lightly constructed figures that prioritize flow over rigidity.
