A refined cursive script with tall, slender letterforms and a pronounced rightward slant. Strokes alternate between hairline connectors and slightly heavier downstrokes, creating a calligraphic rhythm with generous white space. Capitals are especially elongated and looped, with occasional entry/exit swashes, while lowercase forms stay compact with a notably small x-height and long ascenders/descenders. Numerals and punctuation follow the same light, flowing construction, maintaining an overall graceful, handwritten consistency.
Best suited to short-to-medium text where its fine strokes and tall proportions can breathe, such as wedding stationery, event invitations, boutique branding, product labels, and editorial headlines. It also works well for quotes or signatures when set with comfortable tracking and ample line spacing.
The font conveys a soft, intimate tone—polished yet personable—like neat penmanship with a touch of flourish. Its lightness and looping capitals read as romantic and dressy rather than casual or rugged.
Designed to emulate elegant handwriting with calligraphic contrast and expressive capitals, prioritizing charm and sophistication over utilitarian readability at small sizes. The narrow, vertical posture and delicate joins suggest an emphasis on graceful word shapes and a refined, formal presence.
Letter connections are often implied through thin joins, but not every pair fully links, giving it a natural, written-on-the-fly feel. The dramatic height contrast between capitals and lowercase increases visual hierarchy, making initial letters stand out strongly in words and titles.
