A flowing script with smooth, calligraphic curves and a gentle rightward slant. Strokes show noticeable thick–thin modulation, with tapered entries and exits that create a pen-drawn rhythm. Letterforms are open and rounded, with frequent loops, soft terminals, and occasional swashes on capitals; spacing feels airy and the baseline has a subtly bouncy cadence. The lowercase leans toward compact bodies with tall ascenders and extended descenders, while numerals and capitals keep a consistent, graceful stroke logic.
Well-suited to identity and display settings where a handwritten, personal signature is desired—such as boutique branding, packaging labels, invitations, greeting cards, and social graphics. It works particularly well for names, short headlines, and accent text where the swashy capitals can provide emphasis.
The overall tone is warm and personable, balancing elegance with a light, whimsical charm. Its looping forms and soft finish give it a romantic, boutique feel, while the casual bounce keeps it approachable rather than formal or rigid.
This font appears designed to deliver a polished hand-lettered script look with expressive capitals and smooth, continuous motion, aiming for a refined yet friendly presence in display typography.
Capitals are more expressive than the lowercase, using larger curves and occasional flourishes that help create strong word shapes in short phrases. The design reads best when given room to breathe, as the thin hairlines and looping joins can visually crowd at small sizes or in dense settings.
