A delicate, tall script with an upright-leaning italic slant and a largely monoline stroke that swells subtly at curves and terminals. Letterforms are narrow and vertically stretched, with frequent looped ascenders/descenders and long, fine entry and exit strokes that create a lively rhythm. Connections are selective rather than fully continuous, mixing handwritten joins with lifted strokes, and many capitals use simplified calligraphic structures with restrained flourishes. The overall texture is light and open, with generous counters and thin cross-strokes that emphasize an airy line quality.
Well-suited to short to medium-length display settings where its slender strokes and looping forms can be appreciated, such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, packaging labels, and editorial headlines. It can also work for pull quotes or social graphics when set with ample size and spacing to preserve clarity.
The font reads as graceful and slightly playful, balancing formal script cues with a casual, hand-drawn spontaneity. Its tall proportions and looping strokes give it a romantic, boutique feel, while the occasional irregularities keep it personable and crafted rather than rigidly calligraphic.
The design appears intended to provide an elegant handwritten script that feels refined yet personal, using tall, narrow forms and looping gestures to add charm and movement. It prioritizes a distinctive display voice over dense text efficiency, aiming for a graceful signature-like presence in titles and branding.
Capitals are especially prominent and decorative, standing taller than the lowercase with extended stems and occasional swash-like terminals. Numerals follow the same narrow, lightly drawn style, with simple forms and minimal ornament, maintaining a consistent handwritten tone in mixed text.
