A wiry, handwritten italic with long, tapered strokes and a lightly textured, slightly uneven edge that reads like dry pen or brush on paper. Letterforms are narrow and airy, with subtle stroke modulation and frequent entry/exit flicks that create a lively rhythm across words. Curves are open and elastic, terminals often sharpen to fine points, and overall spacing feels loose and human rather than mechanically uniform.
Works best for display and short-to-medium passages where the airy, handwritten character can be appreciated—quotes, poetry, invitations, editorial pull quotes, boutique packaging, and posters. It can also suit thematic titling where a delicate, slightly distressed hand-made voice is desired.
The font conveys an intimate, personal tone—expressive and a little weathered, like notes in a sketchbook or a quick inscription. Its delicate, imperfect texture adds a vintage, handmade feel without becoming messy, lending a quiet drama and whimsy to short lines of text.
Likely designed to mimic quick, elegant handwriting with a lightly worn texture, balancing legibility with expressive motion. The goal appears to be a refined, personal script-like look that feels human and crafted rather than polished or geometric.
Uppercase forms lean toward simple, calligraphic constructions with occasional exaggerated diagonals and tall proportions, while lowercase maintains a consistent slant and light baseline irregularity. Numerals share the same thin, drawn quality, with open bowls and angled strokes that match the script-like momentum.
