A delicate, monoline cursive with a consistent rightward slant and smooth, continuous stroke flow. Letterforms are narrow and lightly built, with rounded bowls, frequent entry/exit strokes, and occasional long, sweeping terminals that create a graceful rhythm. Capitals are taller and more expressive, using looped forms and extended cross-strokes, while lowercase remains compact with small counters and understated joins. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, staying simple and open with a lightly calligraphic swing.
Well-suited to short to medium display text where its light strokes and expressive capitals can be appreciated—such as invitations, greeting cards, personal stationery, boutique branding, beauty or lifestyle packaging, and pull quotes. It works best when given generous size and breathing room, rather than dense body copy.
The overall tone feels airy and intimate, like a careful handwritten note with a polished edge. Its looping capitals and gentle slant add a romantic, boutique sensibility without becoming overly ornate. The light touch and smooth rhythm convey calmness and refinement.
Likely designed to capture the feel of neat, flowing handwriting with a refined, modern cleanliness. The restrained monoline build and consistent slant aim for elegance and legibility, while the looped capitals and extended terminals provide a signature flourish for display use.
Spacing appears intentionally loose for a script, helping prevent collisions from the longer terminals and swashes, especially in mixed-case settings. The most distinctive personality comes through in the uppercase set, where loops and elongated strokes create prominent word-shape highlights.
