A flowing calligraphic script with a pronounced rightward slant and hairline entry/exit strokes that contrast with sharper, thicker downstrokes. Letterforms are built from long, continuous curves and tapered terminals, with frequent swashes—especially in capitals and in letters with ascenders/descenders. The lowercase has a very small x-height relative to tall ascenders, giving the line a lofty, airy rhythm, while the numerals follow the same elegant, slanted construction with thin, curling finishing strokes.
Best suited to short, display-oriented settings where the swashes can serve as a focal point—wedding suites, invitations, certificates, menu covers, and premium packaging or branding. It also works well for elegant headlines or pull quotes, while longer passages may require larger sizes and ample tracking to maintain clarity.
The overall tone feels classic and ceremonial, evoking engraved stationery and formal handwriting. Its delicate hairlines and sweeping capitals communicate sophistication and romance rather than casual friendliness.
Designed to emulate formal penmanship with an emphasis on dramatic contrast and ornamental movement, prioritizing graceful silhouettes and expressive capitals for decorative typography.
Spacing appears generous around many capitals, letting their flourishes breathe, while joins in the lowercase read as smooth and continuous at text sizes. The most distinctive features are the long lead-in strokes and the extended terminal curls, which can become prominent in tight layouts or small reproduction.
