A flowing script with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a consistent rightward slant. Strokes taper to fine hairlines with teardrop terminals and occasional entry/exit flicks, giving the outlines a calligraphic, pen-drawn feel. Letterforms are narrow and lively, with long ascenders and descenders, open counters, and frequent loops in both capitals and lowercase. Connections are suggested by the rhythm of the strokes, while many characters retain distinct, readable silhouettes with selective swashes and extended cross-strokes.
Well-suited to short, prominent text where flourish and contrast can shine—wedding and event stationery, boutique branding, product packaging, and social graphics. It also works effectively for pull quotes and headings when paired with a quiet serif or sans for body text.
The font reads as graceful and romantic, balancing formality with a light, playful bounce. Its looping forms and delicate terminals add a personal, handcrafted warmth, while the high-contrast strokes keep the overall impression polished and dressy.
The design appears intended to emulate modern pointed-pen calligraphy in a clean, repeatable typeface, offering decorative capitals and a smooth, looping rhythm for expressive display typography.
Capitals tend to feature larger, more decorative gestures (notably in curved letters), creating a clear hierarchy for initials and short display settings. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with slender shapes and curved, slightly flamboyant terminals that match the letterforms.
