A delicate, hairline script with tall proportions and a strongly slanted, quick handwritten rhythm. Strokes are predominantly monoline with occasional pressure-like swell at turns, and terminals often taper into fine points. Uppercase forms are large and gestural, with long ascenders, occasional cross-strokes, and looping entry/exit strokes that can extend beyond the letter body. Lowercase is compact with a very small x-height relative to ascenders, producing a high-rise silhouette and lots of white space. Connections appear intermittent rather than fully continuous, creating a lively, slightly irregular texture across words.
This font suits wordmarks, boutique branding, invitation-style layouts, and short display lines where its airy hairline strokes can stay crisp. It also works well for pull quotes or cover-style headlines when set with generous size and breathing room; for longer passages, its tiny x-height and delicate strokes favor larger point sizes and restrained line lengths.
The overall tone is refined and personal—more like a fast, stylish signature than formal calligraphy. Its thinness and lofty capitals give it a fashionable, romantic feel, while the uneven joins and swift curves keep it casual and human.
The design appears intended to capture a sleek handwritten signature look with dramatic capitals and a light, floating texture. Its proportions and tapering terminals emphasize elegance and motion over strict regularity, aiming for expressive display use rather than utilitarian text setting.
Spacing and width vary noticeably from letter to letter, contributing to an expressive cadence. Numerals and punctuation follow the same sparse, wiry construction, and the dramatic contrast in scale between uppercase and lowercase can make capitals dominate in mixed-case settings.
