A delicate, calligraphic script with a pronounced rightward slant and fine hairline strokes. Letterforms are built from long, sweeping entry and exit strokes, with frequent loops and occasional flourish-like cross strokes that extend beyond the main body of the glyph. Curves are smooth and elongated, counters stay open, and the overall rhythm feels light and continuous rather than tightly constructed. Capitals are notably taller and more ornamental than the lowercase, creating a strong top-line presence in words.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as wedding stationery, greeting cards, boutique branding, beauty or lifestyle packaging, and pull quotes. It works particularly well where expressive capitals and flowing connections can be showcased at larger sizes, rather than in dense body copy.
The overall tone is graceful and romantic, evoking handwritten notes, invitations, and personal correspondence. Its airy stroke weight and flowing motion give it a polished, expressive feel that reads as formal-leaning while still distinctly hand-drawn.
The design appears intended to provide a graceful, modern handwritten script with an emphasis on fluid connections, elegant swashes, and a light, airy page color. It prioritizes expressive word shapes and decorative capital forms for display-oriented typography.
In the samples, long ascenders, deep descenders, and swashy capitals create an elegant texture but also increase the font’s horizontal movement, making spacing and line length feel more dynamic. The numerals follow the same handwritten logic, with simple forms and light curvature that match the script’s refined character.
