A delicate, hairline script with pronounced contrast between fine connectors and slightly fuller curves. The letterforms are strongly slanted with long, tapering entry and exit strokes, producing a fast, sweeping rhythm. Capitals are tall and narrow with generous looped flourishes and extended terminals, while lowercase forms are compact with minimal x-height and thin, threadlike joins. Spacing is tight and flowing, and the overall texture stays light and crisp even in longer text lines.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where its fine strokes and sweeping capitals can be appreciated—such as wedding suites, event stationery, boutique branding, product packaging, and editorial headlines. It can work for brief phrases or pull quotes, but the very light joins and compact lowercase suggest using comfortable sizes and ample contrast in print or on-screen.
The font reads as graceful and romantic, with a formal, invitation-like poise. Its restrained stroke weight and elongated swashes create an upscale, airy tone that feels suited to ceremonial or boutique contexts rather than casual note-taking.
The design appears intended to emulate refined, pen-written calligraphy with an emphasis on elegant capitals and a light, flowing cadence. Its narrow proportions and hairline construction prioritize sophistication and visual grace over robust, small-size readability.
The numerals follow the same slender, slanted calligraphic logic, with simple shapes and light terminals that blend well with surrounding text. In the samples, the most distinctive personality comes from the capital forms, which carry much of the flourish and visual emphasis.
