A hairline, monoline script with a pronounced rightward slant and long, tapered entry/exit strokes. Letterforms are built from smooth, continuous curves with occasional looped constructions in capitals and select lowercase, giving the set a flowing rhythm. Proportions are tall and slender, with generous ascenders and descenders and small interior counters that keep the texture light and open. Stroke terminals are fine and pointed, and spacing feels loose enough to let the thin strokes breathe, especially in title settings.
Well suited to wedding or event invitations, boutique branding, beauty and lifestyle packaging, and short editorial pull quotes where a light, handwritten voice is desired. It performs best as a display face—names, headers, and signature-style lines—rather than dense paragraphs, where the hairline strokes and tight counters can lose definition at small sizes.
The overall tone is graceful and intimate, reading like quick, confident penmanship rather than formal calligraphy. Its thin strokes and sweeping gestures convey a soft, upscale feel—poetic and personal, with a slightly dramatic flourish in the capitals.
Likely designed to capture an elegant, contemporary handwriting look with a minimal, pen-like stroke and expressive capitals. The intent appears to balance legibility with flourish, providing a refined script for premium, personal-facing design contexts.
Capitals are the main carriers of personality, featuring extended strokes and occasional crossing loops that create strong initial-letter presence. The numerals follow the same thin, slanted logic and look best when allowed extra size or tracking to preserve clarity.
