A tall, slender handwritten script with pronounced stroke-contrast: fine hairlines transition into heavier downstrokes, producing a calligraphic rhythm. Letterforms are mostly upright with slightly irregular, hand-drawn modulation and variable character widths. Capitals feature occasional swashes and extended entry/exit strokes, while lowercase shows narrow bowls, high-placed joins, and long ascenders/descenders that create a vertical, airy texture. Numerals follow the same contrast and narrow proportions, with delicate curves and tapered terminals.
Best suited to display settings where its tall, elegant forms can breathe—such as invitations, boutique branding, product packaging, and logo wordmarks. It also works well for short headlines or pull quotes where a hand-lettered, decorative accent is desired.
The overall tone feels refined yet approachable, blending a boutique, vintage charm with a light whimsicality. Its narrow, high-contrast strokes read as graceful and decorative, suggesting a hand-lettered personality rather than a mechanical script.
The design appears intended to evoke a modern calligraphy look with a narrow, vertical emphasis, combining decorative capitals and delicate hairlines to create a polished, handcrafted impression for premium display typography.
Spacing appears intentionally open for a script style, helping distinct letter shapes remain legible despite the condensed proportions. The stroke endings often taper to fine points, and several glyphs show subtle asymmetry that reinforces the handmade character.
