A tall, slender handwritten script with an upright stance and pronounced thick–thin modulation that mimics a flexible pen. Letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with long ascenders/descenders, small bowls, and occasional looping terminals. Strokes often taper to fine hairlines at entry and exit points, while downstrokes swell slightly, giving a lively, calligraphic rhythm. Connections are intermittent rather than fully joined throughout, and the overall texture stays light and open with generous internal space.
Best suited to short to medium-length display settings where its delicate contrast can be appreciated, such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, packaging accents, and quote graphics. It can also work for headings and pull quotes when paired with a more neutral text face for body copy.
The font feels whimsical and personable, like careful ink lettering in a journal or storybook. Its airy contrast and looping details add a gentle elegance without becoming overly formal, keeping the tone friendly and expressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a refined, hand-lettered look with a graceful vertical flow and expressive pen pressure, prioritizing personality and elegance over dense text efficiency.
Capitals are especially tall and linear, acting almost like decorative initials, while the lowercase maintains a consistent narrow cadence. Numerals are similarly slender and simple, matching the vertical emphasis of the alphabet and preserving the light, drawn-by-hand character.
