A formal script with tall, slender proportions and a pronounced calligraphic contrast between hairline upstrokes and thicker downstrokes. Strokes are smooth and continuous with frequent looping terminals, teardrop-like joins, and extended entry/exit swashes, especially in capitals. Letterforms sit on a steady baseline and keep a mostly consistent rightward rhythm while allowing individual characters to vary in width and flourish. Lowercase forms are compact and delicate, with small counters and narrow bowls that emphasize verticality and fine detail.
Best suited to short display text where its hairline detail and flourishes can remain crisp—such as wedding stationery, formal invitations, boutique branding, beauty or lifestyle packaging, and elegant headlines. For longer passages or small sizes, the delicate strokes and tight internal spaces may benefit from generous size and spacing.
The overall tone feels graceful and romantic, with a refined, invitation-style presence. The long ascenders, looping capitals, and thin hairlines convey a sense of formality and lightness that reads as classic and decorative rather than casual.
Designed to emulate refined pen-calligraphy: dramatic, decorative capitals paired with a lighter, compact lowercase that supports flowing word shapes. The emphasis appears to be on sophistication and visual flourish for prominent, expressive typography.
Capitals are the main display feature, using generous curves and occasional high-reaching strokes that create dramatic silhouettes. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic with slender forms and curled terminals, keeping the set cohesive for ornamental settings.
