A very fine, pen-like script with a strong rightward slant and long, sweeping entry and exit strokes. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with generous ascenders and descenders that create a stretched vertical rhythm. Strokes stay consistently thin while using pointed terminals and occasional hairline-like flicks, giving an overall light, crisp texture. Uppercase characters are more ornate and loop-driven, while the lowercase maintains a restrained, flowing cursive structure with minimal joins and ample internal whitespace.
Best suited to short, expressive settings where delicacy is an asset—signatures, invitations, boutique branding, headings, and pull quotes. It performs well at larger sizes where the fine strokes and long flourishes can remain clear, and it pairs naturally with a simple text face for supporting copy.
The font reads as graceful and intimate, like quick but careful handwriting with a dressy finish. Its thin linework and elongated forms bring a refined, romantic tone that feels quiet and understated rather than bold or playful.
The design appears intended to emulate a refined cursive hand with elegant proportions and minimal stroke mass, prioritizing a graceful silhouette and flowing word shapes. It aims to provide a personal, upscale handwritten feel for display-centric typography.
The alphabet shows a mix of connected and semi-connected behavior in running text, with extended cross-strokes and swashes that can add flourish at the beginnings and ends of words. Numerals follow the same narrow, handwritten logic, keeping the overall color light and consistent across mixed content.
