A flowing cursive with a pronounced rightward slant and high-contrast stroke behavior that evokes a brush or flexible pen. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with long ascenders/descenders and a noticeably short x-height that gives the lowercase a petite, delicate presence. Strokes taper into pointed terminals and occasional swelled downstrokes, while bowls and joins stay smooth and rhythmic. Uppercase forms are more display-like, using open curves and occasional flourish-like cross-strokes that read well at larger sizes.
Well-suited to short to medium display text where a refined handwritten voice is desired—logos, boutique branding, product packaging, invitations, greeting cards, and quote graphics. It performs best when given enough size and breathing room to preserve its thin hairlines and pointed terminals.
The font conveys a polished handwritten charm—graceful, romantic, and slightly dramatic. Its brisk slant and sharp tapers add energy, while the rounded loops keep it friendly and personable rather than formal.
Designed to mimic confident, stylish penmanship with calligraphic contrast and a compact, fashion-forward silhouette. The intent appears to balance legibility with expressive gesture, offering a script that feels personal while remaining polished for commercial display work.
Spacing appears intentionally tight and compact, contributing to a cohesive cursive line. Numerals are also slanted and stylized to match the script, with smooth curves and a handwritten cadence. Some capitals feature extended entry/exit strokes that can create strong horizontal emphasis in headlines.
