A formal script with slender, vertically oriented forms and pronounced thick–thin modulation reminiscent of pointed-pen calligraphy. Strokes taper to fine hairlines, with occasional swelling on downstrokes and softly rounded terminals. Letterforms are tall and narrow with generous ascenders/descenders and a notably small x-height, creating a light, floating rhythm. Connections are implied by flowing entry/exit strokes, while many characters remain individually articulated, mixing script structure with display-like spacing. Numerals mirror the same contrast and curvature, with elegant, looping figures.
Best suited to display settings where its tall proportions and hairline details can breathe—wedding stationery, invitations, boutique branding, beauty/fashion packaging, and short headlines. It works especially well for names, signatures, and emphasized phrases rather than dense paragraphs.
The font conveys a cultivated, boutique feel—graceful and ornamental without becoming overly ornate. Its looping capitals and airy lowercase read as romantic and slightly playful, suited to expressive, personality-forward typography.
Designed to evoke a hand-written, formal calligraphic script with a modern, slender silhouette. The intent appears to prioritize elegance and distinctive lettershape character—especially in capitals—while retaining readable script flow for short-form text.
Capitals show distinctive, elongated gestures and occasional swash-like strokes (notably in letters such as Q, T, and V/W), creating a lively headline texture. The overall color on the page stays light due to abundant hairlines, so small sizes may appear delicate while larger settings emphasize the calligraphic contrast.
