A delicate, flowing script with tall, slender proportions and a lively rightward slant. Strokes are hairline-thin with pronounced contrast between light curves and slightly firmer downstrokes, creating a refined, ink-on-paper feel. Letterforms favor elongated loops, narrow counters, and long ascenders/descenders, while capitals are large and gestural with sweeping entry strokes and occasional cross-stroke flourishes. Spacing and joins read like natural handwriting—connected in spirit, with a slightly variable rhythm and subtle irregularities that keep it organic.
Well-suited to wedding and event invitations, beauty and lifestyle branding, packaging accents, and short quotes where a refined handwritten voice is desired. It performs best at medium-to-large sizes or in sparse settings where its hairline strokes and tight structure have room to breathe.
The overall tone is intimate and graceful, like a neat personal note written with a fine pen. Its light touch and looping forms lend a romantic, boutique sensibility, while the tall, airy construction keeps the texture soft rather than heavy.
Designed to emulate elegant contemporary handwriting with a fine-pen look—prioritizing grace, motion, and expressive capitals for display-oriented settings rather than dense, utilitarian text.
Capitals function as decorative anchors, often wider and more expressive than the lowercase, which stays compact and threadlike. Numerals are similarly slender and drawn with a handwritten cadence, matching the script’s delicate texture in running text.
