A delicate, slanted script with a fine, pen-like stroke and lightly modulated curves. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with long ascenders and descenders, small lowercase bodies, and frequent looped entrances/exits that create a continuous handwritten rhythm. Strokes stay mostly clean and smooth with tapered terminals, while capitals add flourish through extended swashes and open counter shapes. Spacing feels loose and flowing, and the overall texture is light and sparkling rather than dense.
Best suited to short to medium-length settings where its fine stroke and flourished capitals can be appreciated—wedding and event invitations, boutique branding, beauty and lifestyle packaging, and headline treatments for social graphics or editorial pull quotes. It works particularly well when given generous tracking and plenty of whitespace, and is less ideal for small-size, long-form reading where the light texture may recede.
The font reads as intimate and graceful, combining a fashion-forward elegance with the informality of quick, confident handwriting. Its looping strokes and tall proportions evoke romance and sophistication, while the slight irregularity keeps it human and approachable.
Designed to capture the look of a stylish, cursive signature written with a fine pen—prioritizing elegance, movement, and expressive capitals over strict uniformity. The narrow, tall construction and looping joins suggest an emphasis on refined display use with a personal, handwritten finish.
Uppercase letters are more decorative and calligraphic than the lowercase, with several forms using extended leading strokes that can create dramatic beginnings in headlines. Numerals follow the same light, handwritten logic and feel consistent with the alphabet, with open shapes and minimal weight.
