A flowing script with a pronounced rightward slant and a light, airy stroke. Letterforms are built from long, continuous curves with frequent entry/exit strokes and occasional extended swashes, especially in capitals. Strokes show gentle pressure modulation—thin hairlines with slightly reinforced downstrokes—while overall texture remains refined rather than bold. The set keeps a consistent cursive rhythm, with narrow proportions, tight internal counters, and generous ascenders/descenders that create an elegant, vertically lively silhouette.
Well suited to short, prominent settings such as invitations, greeting cards, beauty/fashion branding, product packaging, and logo-style wordmarks. It also works as a display accent for headlines or pull quotes where its swashy capitals and fine strokes can be given room; for long passages or very small sizes, the delicate texture and tight counters may reduce clarity.
The overall tone is graceful and personable, like neat handwritten calligraphy done with a fine pen. Its looping capitals and smooth connections give it a romantic, boutique feel, while the light texture keeps it polished and understated rather than playful or loud.
Likely designed to emulate refined, contemporary cursive handwriting with a calligraphic sensibility—prioritizing elegant movement, decorative capitals, and a smooth, connected writing rhythm over utilitarian text readability.
Capitals are notably decorative, with large initial strokes and looping terminals that can extend into surrounding space, making spacing and line breaks an important consideration. Lowercase forms appear more compact and restrained than the capitals, reinforcing a clear hierarchy between initials and body text.
