A narrow, handwritten script with tall ascenders and a compact lowercase body that creates a distinctly vertical rhythm. Strokes show pronounced contrast, with hairline entry/exit strokes and thicker downstrokes, and terminals often finish in soft, rounded hooks. Letterforms are lightly connected in running text, with frequent loops in ascenders and descenders and an overall bouncy, calligraphic cadence. Capitals are simplified and upright with occasional flourish, while numerals and punctuation maintain the same delicate, high-contrast, pen-drawn character.
Best suited to short-to-medium display copy where its delicate contrast and looping joins can be appreciated, such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, and product packaging. It also works well for headlines, pull quotes, and social graphics where a personal, crafted tone is desired; for long passages, the narrow proportions and compact lowercase can reduce readability.
The font feels personable and charming, balancing refinement with a casual hand-made warmth. Its looping forms and slender proportions give it a romantic, boutique tone, while the lively rhythm keeps it friendly rather than formal or severe.
The design appears intended to emulate a neat, pen-written script with calligraphic contrast and light flourishes, providing an expressive alternative to neutral text faces. Its narrow stance and tall extenders aim to deliver an elegant, space-efficient wordmark-like texture while retaining a human, handwritten signature quality.
Connectivity appears selective—some joins are smooth while others break into pen-lift-like transitions—reinforcing an authentic handwritten flow. The narrow set and tall extenders can make spacing and word shapes feel airy and elongated, especially in mixed-case settings.
