A delicate cursive script with slender, high-contrast strokes and a consistent rightward slant. Letterforms are built from smooth, continuous curves with frequent entry/exit strokes and occasional swashes, giving the line a fluid, handwritten rhythm. Ascenders are tall and prominent while the x-height stays notably small, producing a refined, elongated silhouette. Spacing and widths vary naturally from glyph to glyph, and the overall texture remains light and open despite the dramatic thick–thin modulation.
Well-suited to invitations, wedding materials, greeting cards, and lifestyle or boutique branding where a refined handwritten signature is desired. It works best in short to medium phrases—logotypes, headlines, pull quotes, and product names—where its swashes and contrast can be appreciated without crowding.
The font conveys a graceful, romantic tone with an intimate, handwritten feel. Its looping forms and airy weight suggest sophistication and warmth, leaning more toward elegant correspondence than casual note-taking.
Designed to emulate a graceful pen-written script with calligraphic contrast and expressive capitals, prioritizing elegance and motion over rigid uniformity. The narrow, tall proportions and small x-height appear intended to create a light, sophisticated voice for display typography.
Capitals are especially expressive, with generous loops and extended strokes that can become visual focal points at the start of words. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with curved forms and a light, flowing presence that matches the alphabet.
