A hairline, monoline cursive with tall, slender letterforms and generous ascenders and descenders. Strokes keep a consistent thinness with a light, pen-drawn wobble, and many capitals are built from open oval loops and long entry/exit strokes. The overall rhythm is right-leaning and flowing, with mostly unconnected lowercase and occasional joining tendencies through extended terminals. Numerals follow the same spare, linear construction, with simple shapes and ample white space.
This font suits signatures, short headlines, invitations, and pull quotes where a light, handwritten voice is desired. It also works well on beauty, boutique, and specialty packaging when set at moderate to large sizes with comfortable tracking and leading to preserve its fine strokes and tall proportions.
The tone is refined and personal, like a quick, careful note written with a fine-tip pen. Its airy construction and looping capitals give it a romantic, poetic feel while staying understated rather than flashy.
The design appears intended to mimic fine, modern handwriting with an emphasis on elegant loops, a soft pen rhythm, and minimal stroke weight. It prioritizes a graceful, personal presence over dense readability, making it best for display-length text.
Capitals are the main expressive feature, often featuring oversized loops and elongated cross-strokes that can extend into neighboring space. The very small x-height and long extenders create a vertical, calligraphic silhouette that benefits from generous line spacing.
