A flowing cursive script with smooth, rounded strokes and a gentle rightward slant. Letterforms show soft entry and exit strokes with occasional looped ascenders and descenders, creating a lively handwritten rhythm. Capitals are more decorative, featuring elongated curves and modest swashes, while lowercase forms remain compact and connected-looking even when set with natural spacing. Numerals follow the same cursive logic, with simple, slightly open forms and subtle stroke modulation.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display copy where a handwritten, elegant voice is desired—such as wedding materials, greetings, boutique branding, beauty/lifestyle packaging, and editorial-style headlines. It can also work for pull quotes or signatures when set with comfortable tracking and ample line spacing.
The overall tone feels personable and polished, balancing casual handwritten charm with a more formal, invitation-like grace. Its looping shapes and soft terminals give it a romantic, slightly whimsical character that reads as warm rather than strict or mechanical.
Designed to emulate neat, calligraphy-influenced handwriting with a graceful tempo and decorative capitals. The intent appears to prioritize expressive, romantic display typography while keeping letterforms coherent enough for readable words and phrases.
The design leans on continuous motion and curved joins, with noticeable variation in flourish from glyph to glyph (especially in capitals), which adds expressiveness in display settings. Counters tend to stay open and airy, and the slender strokes emphasize delicacy over bold presence.
