A delicate hairline display face with tall, slender proportions and generous vertical reach. Strokes are extremely thin with occasional tapered swells and teardrop-like terminals that suggest a pen-drawn gesture rather than rigid geometry. Curves are smooth and narrow, counters are small, and ascenders/descenders are long, giving the lowercase a notably petite body relative to capitals. Spacing feels open and calm, while widths vary subtly from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an organic, hand-rendered rhythm.
Best suited for headlines and short phrases where its hairline detail and tall proportions can be appreciated. It works well for invitations, boutique branding, packaging accents, and editorial or book-cover titling that benefits from a delicate, whimsical tone. For longer passages, it’s more effective as a decorative display layer rather than primary text.
The overall tone is airy and whimsical, with a refined, slightly vintage charm. Its thin strokes and elongated forms read as elegant and playful rather than authoritative, lending a light, storybook-like personality to text. The pen-like terminals add a gentle, expressive warmth without becoming connected script.
The design appears intended to mimic informal, careful hand lettering with a fine pen: tall, narrow shapes, subtle tapering, and distinctive terminal flicks create personality while staying upright and legible. Its emphasis on elegance and lightness suggests a decorative display role aimed at adding charm and sophistication to titles and curated brand moments.
Capital forms dominate visually due to their height, and the lowercase’s short body and long extenders create a pronounced vertical texture in lines of text. Numerals follow the same slender, drawn style, with simple silhouettes and occasional curl-like finishing strokes that enhance the handcrafted feel. The light stroke weight suggests it will be most comfortable at larger sizes and in settings that can preserve fine detail.
