A slanted, calligraphic script with pronounced thick–thin modulation and tapered terminals that mimic a flexible nib or brush. Letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with tall ascenders and descenders and a relatively compact x-height that gives the lowercase a delicate, lifted look. Strokes alternate between smooth hairlines and fuller downstrokes, and many capitals feature modest swashes and curled entry/exit strokes. Spacing is tight and rhythmically uneven in a natural way, producing a lively, handwritten texture while maintaining consistent overall proportions.
It performs best in short to medium display settings such as invitations, event materials, boutique logos, product labels, and editorial headlines where its contrast and flourishes can be appreciated. For longer passages, larger sizes and generous line spacing help preserve clarity and avoid crowding in the tighter joins and loops.
The font conveys a classic, romantic tone with a lightly whimsical bounce. Its flourishes and contrast suggest formality and craft, evoking invitations, boutique branding, and nostalgic packaging rather than a modern utilitarian voice.
The design appears intended to capture a polished hand-lettered script—decorative enough for special occasions, yet structured enough to set names, titles, and short phrases with consistent elegance. Its narrow, upright-leaning rhythm and high-contrast strokes emphasize refinement and a vintage-inspired sense of occasion.
Capitals are expressive and decorative, while the lowercase remains comparatively readable, creating a clear hierarchy for display use. Numerals and punctuation follow the same handwritten logic, with rounded forms and occasional looped details that reinforce the calligraphic personality.
