A delicate, slanted script with fine, consistent strokes and gently tapered curves. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with long ascenders and descenders and frequent loop construction in capitals and select lowercase forms. The writing shows a smooth, continuous rhythm with mostly connected joins in context, while individual glyphs retain clear entry and exit strokes for linking. Counters are open and oval, and the overall texture is light and spacious, with a slightly calligraphic sweep despite an overall monoline feel.
Well suited to invitations, greeting cards, wedding materials, and short expressive copy where a light, refined script is desired. It can also work for boutique branding, product labels, and social graphics, especially at larger sizes where the thin strokes and looping capitals can breathe.
The font reads as intimate and graceful, with a soft, handwritten charm. Its looping capitals and relaxed connections give it a romantic, note-like tone that feels more personal than formal, while still maintaining a polished elegance.
Designed to emulate neat, flowing handwriting with elegant loops and a light touch, balancing decorative capitals with straightforward lowercase for readable word shapes. The overall construction suggests an emphasis on graceful rhythm and personal tone rather than dense text setting.
Capitals are notably decorative, often featuring large initial loops and extended terminals that add flourish at word starts. Lowercase forms stay simpler and legible, with modest variation in join behavior and occasional lifted strokes that reinforce the natural handwritten impression. Numerals follow the same thin, slanted rhythm and look best when given room rather than set tightly.
