A flowing cursive with a pronounced rightward slant and brush-pen stroke behavior. Letterforms are built from long, sweeping curves with tapered terminals and occasional hooked finishes, creating a lively, hand-drawn rhythm. Capitals are tall and gestural with open counters and generous ascenders/descenders, while lowercase remains compact with simplified joins and a noticeably small body relative to the extenders. Overall spacing is relatively open for a script, helping the thin upstrokes and sharper downstrokes read cleanly in continuous text.
Well-suited to short-to-medium display settings where its flowing motion and tapered strokes can be appreciated—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, packaging callouts, and social media graphics. It also works for headlines or pull quotes when paired with a simpler text face for body copy.
The tone feels personable and spontaneous, like quick marker or brush lettering used for notes, invitations, and lifestyle branding. It balances informality with a touch of elegance thanks to its tall forms, graceful loops, and refined tapering.
Likely designed to emulate quick, confident brush handwriting with legible forms and a consistent cursive rhythm. The tall, expressive capitals and compact lowercase suggest an emphasis on stylish display typography rather than long-form reading.
Several letters show distinctive entry/exit strokes that create a natural handwritten cadence, and the numerals follow the same calligraphic logic with slender forms and soft curves. The contrast between delicate hairlines and fuller strokes gives the texture sparkle, especially in larger sizes.
