A delicate handwritten script with a brisk rightward slant and a lively, bouncing baseline. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation, with many letters built from slender entry strokes that swell into darker downstrokes and taper to hairline terminals. Counters are open and rounded, ascenders are tall and narrow, and many forms include looped joins and occasional swash-like hooks (notably in capitals and descenders). Overall spacing is tight and compact, with letterforms that feel drawn with a pointed pen and finished with quick, tapered ends.
Well suited to short-to-medium display settings where personality matters: invitations, greeting cards, boutique logos, product packaging, and social media graphics. It can also work for headings, pull quotes, and signature-style accents when paired with a quieter text face.
The font conveys a light, personable elegance—romantic and slightly whimsical rather than formal. Its animated rhythm and looping shapes suggest hand-addressed notes, boutique branding, and crafted stationery, balancing charm with a refined, airy touch.
Designed to capture the feel of quick, confident cursive writing with a calligraphic pen contrast and decorative loops. The intention appears to be an expressive display script that remains legible in words and short phrases while adding a refined handmade character.
Capitals are especially expressive, mixing simple upright stems with curled entry/exit strokes that add a decorative flourish without becoming overly ornate. Numerals mirror the calligraphic construction, with slender curves and occasional looped features that maintain the script’s consistent pen rhythm.
