A flowing cursive with tall ascenders, deep looped descenders, and an overall rightward slant. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin modulation that reads like pointed-pen writing, with hairline entry/exit strokes and occasional heavier downstrokes. Letterforms are open and rounded, with long, smooth curves, frequent loops (notably in capitals and letters like g, y, and z), and lightly extended terminals that give the line a continuous, gliding rhythm. Spacing is compact and the lowercase is small relative to the capitals, emphasizing a graceful, vertical silhouette.
Best suited for short, prominent settings where its delicate contrast and looping forms can be appreciated—wedding suites, invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, cosmetic or fragrance packaging, and headline-style editorial accents. It can also work as a signature-style mark or for pull quotes when used with comfortable size and spacing.
The font feels refined and intimate, combining a formal calligraphic polish with a soft, personal handwritten character. Its looping swashes and slender hairlines create a romantic, airy tone suited to expressive, upscale messaging rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to emulate elegant cursive penmanship with a calligraphic sheen—prioritizing fluid connections, dramatic capitals, and fine hairlines to communicate sophistication and sentiment.
Capitals are especially expressive, using generous entrance strokes and occasional flourish-like crossbars, which can dominate at small sizes. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic with slender forms and curved terminals, maintaining a consistent handwritten cadence across text and figures.
