A tall, delicate script with slender strokes, pronounced contrast between light hairlines and heavier downstrokes, and a gently upright posture. Letterforms show soft, ink-like terminals and occasional entry/exit flicks, with compact lowercase proportions and relatively short x-height compared to long ascenders and descenders. Connections are selective rather than fully continuous, and spacing varies slightly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing a natural handwritten rhythm. Numerals and capitals follow the same calligraphic logic, with narrow silhouettes, looping bowls, and occasional ornamental swashes.
Well-suited for invitations, greeting cards, and event materials where a personal, formal touch is desired. It can also work effectively for boutique branding, beauty or lifestyle packaging, and short headlines or pull quotes that benefit from a handwritten flourish.
The overall tone feels charming and polished—like neat handwriting done with a flexible pen. Its loops and subtle flourishes add a playful, romantic character without becoming overly ornate, giving it an inviting, boutique-like presence.
The design appears intended to mimic tidy, elegant penmanship with a light calligraphic flair—balancing readability with decorative loops so it can function as a personable display script for names, titles, and signature-style text.
Capitals are noticeably more decorative than the lowercase, providing built-in emphasis for initials and short display lines. The contrast and fine joins suggest it will look best when given enough size and clean reproduction so the hairlines don’t disappear.
