A delicate cursive script with hairline, pen-like strokes and a consistent rightward slant. Letterforms are built from long, sweeping curves and extended entry/exit strokes, with occasional generous loops in capitals and select lowercase forms. Overall spacing feels open and light, and the forms stay lean while allowing some glyphs—especially capitals—to expand into expressive swashes. The texture on the line is smooth and even, with subtle thick–thin modulation that reads more like pressure changes than a broad-nib model.
Best used at display sizes where the fine strokes and extended flourishes can breathe—such as invitations, wedding stationery, boutique branding, packaging accents, greeting cards, and short quotes. It can also work as a signature-style accent paired with a simple serif or sans for readability.
The font conveys a graceful, intimate tone—polished yet personal—like a neat handwritten note with flourish. Its lightness and flowing rhythm add a romantic, airy character that feels suited to formal or celebratory moments rather than everyday text.
Designed to emulate an elegant handwritten signature script: light, flowing, and ornamental, with expressive capitals and smooth connections that prioritize charm and sophistication over compact text utility.
Capitals are a prominent feature, using larger loops and longer terminals that create a strong calligraphic silhouette in headlines. The very small-looking lowercase body and tall ascenders/descenders emphasize vertical movement, while numerals maintain the same slender, handwritten feel and lean.
