A delicate cursive with a smooth, calligraphic line and gently tapered terminals. The letterforms lean forward with a consistent handwritten rhythm, mixing simple strokes with occasional loops and modest swashes in the capitals. Strokes read mostly monoline in text, with subtle thick–thin modulation and rounded joins that keep shapes soft rather than sharp. Spacing is open and the overall texture is light, with compact lowercase proportions and comparatively tall ascenders and descenders that give lines a buoyant vertical movement.
Well-suited for short to medium-length display copy such as invitations, stationery, greeting cards, boutique branding, social graphics, and pull quotes. It works best at sizes where the thin strokes and looping details remain clear, and where generous line spacing can accommodate the tall ascenders and descenders.
The tone feels graceful and personable—like neat pen-and-ink handwriting dressed up for invitations. Its looping capitals and relaxed motion add a romantic, slightly whimsical charm without becoming overly formal.
The design appears intended to emulate refined everyday handwriting with a touch of flourish, balancing legibility in connected script with decorative capital forms for emphasis and personality in headings or names.
Capitals are the most decorative elements, often built from single flowing strokes with extended entry/exit curves. Lowercase forms are simpler and more compact, producing a clean cursive line in longer words. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying slender with rounded curves and minimal ornament.
