A flowing, monoline script with long, looping ascenders and descenders and a consistent rightward slant. Letterforms are built from continuous strokes with generous entry and exit swashes, creating a smooth rhythm across words. Capitals are especially ornamental, with extended lead-in strokes and open, rounded bowls; lowercase forms are narrow and lightly constructed, with compact counters and tall proportions. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, using slender strokes and subtle curves that keep the overall texture light and open.
Best suited to short to medium-length text where its loops and swashes can be appreciated—such as invitations, event stationery, greeting cards, boutique branding, and elegant packaging. It can work well for display lines and signatures, especially when set with ample tracking and generous line spacing.
The font conveys a graceful, intimate tone—more like careful penmanship than display calligraphy. Its fine line weight and sweeping curves feel romantic and formal-leaning, suited to moments where delicacy and charm are more important than assertive presence.
Designed to emulate refined handwritten cursive with a light touch, prioritizing fluid connection, graceful movement, and decorative capitals for expressive display typography.
Word shapes tend to read as continuous gesture because many letters connect naturally, and the pronounced swashes can add visual drama in headlines. The overall spacing and extended strokes create a lot of white space, giving compositions an airy, ornamental cadence.
