A delicate cursive script with hairline strokes and pronounced slant, drawn with smooth, continuous motion. Letterforms are narrow and flowing, with long ascenders/descenders and a very small x-height that gives the lowercase a tall, willowy profile. Strokes show a calligraphic rhythm with subtle pressure-like contrast, plus occasional entry/exit flicks and restrained swashes on capitals. Spacing and connections feel handwritten and variable, creating a lively baseline and a slightly irregular texture that remains cohesive across the set.
Works best for short to medium text where elegance is the priority: invitations, event stationery, boutique branding, beauty and lifestyle packaging, and editorial pull quotes. It is especially effective at larger sizes where the thin strokes and fine joins can remain clear, and where the tall proportions and swashes can add a signature-like character.
The overall tone is polished and intimate, evoking modern calligraphy and personal handwriting rather than formal penmanship. Its lightness and looping forms read as gentle and romantic, with a refined, boutique sensibility suited to expressive, premium messaging.
Designed to capture a contemporary handwritten signature look with a light, calligraphic touch—prioritizing graceful rhythm, slender proportions, and expressive capitals for stylish display use.
Capitals tend to be more open and gestural, often built from a few sweeping strokes, while the lowercase maintains consistent cursive joins and slender counters. Numerals follow the same hairline, handwritten logic, with simple, slightly tilted forms that match the script’s cadence.
