A slanted calligraphic serif with pronounced stroke contrast and tapered, pen-like terminals. Letterforms show flowing entry and exit strokes, with soft curves, occasional loops, and small swash-like hooks on capitals. The rhythm is lively and slightly irregular in width and spacing, giving a handwritten cadence while keeping clear, well-defined serifs and counters. Lowercase forms are compact with a relatively low x-height, and ascenders/descenders add vertical elegance; figures follow the same italic, high-contrast logic with old-style, flowing shapes.
Well suited to wedding suites, formal invitations, event collateral, and luxury or boutique branding where a refined italic calligraphic voice is desired. It performs best in display settings such as headlines, product names, short quotations, and certificate-style compositions where its flourished capitals and high contrast can read clearly.
The overall tone is polished and ceremonial, evoking invitation lettering and traditional script-formality. Its flourishes and contrast feel graceful and a bit romantic, with a gently theatrical presence suited to upscale, heritage-leaning design.
Designed to capture the look of formal hand-lettered italic writing with a consistent, print-ready structure. The intention appears to balance classic serif discipline with expressive swashes, offering an elegant display face for refined, occasion-driven typography.
Capitals are the main expressive feature, with varied swash behavior and more dramatic curves than the lowercase. At smaller sizes the delicate hairlines and interior curves may require generous reproduction quality to preserve the crisp contrast.
