A delicate, handwritten script with smooth, continuous strokes and a pronounced forward slant. Letterforms are built from thin, pen-like lines with subtle modulation, long ascenders/descenders, and frequent loops in capitals and select lowercase. The rhythm is lively and slightly bouncy, with open bowls and rounded turns that keep the texture light. Capitals are tall and gestural, often beginning with extended entry strokes; lowercase shapes stay narrow and compact, with a notably small x-height relative to the ascenders.
Well-suited to short phrases where a personal, handwritten tone is desired—wedding and event invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, product packaging accents, and social media graphics. It performs best at display sizes where the thin strokes, long loops, and tight proportions can remain crisp and expressive.
The overall tone feels intimate and personable—like neat, stylish handwriting used for a note or signature. Its lightness and looping forms add a soft, romantic character, while the narrow proportions keep it refined rather than playful.
Designed to mimic refined, everyday cursive writing with an emphasis on elegance and economy of space. The narrow build and tall extenders suggest an intention to feel graceful and sophisticated while staying informal and approachable.
Connectivity is present in the flowing script behavior, but joins are light and sometimes appear as close, near-touching transitions rather than heavy linking strokes, helping maintain clarity at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same thin, handwritten construction and blend naturally with the text.
