A delicate calligraphic hand with smooth, continuous curves and lightly tapered terminals. Capitals are the main showpiece, built from tall, narrow forms with generous entry/exit strokes, curled hooks, and occasional looped bowls that create a flowing rhythm across words. Lowercase is simpler and more restrained, maintaining a consistent narrow stance and short x-height, with modest ascenders/descenders and softly rounded joins. Numerals follow the same light, curving logic, with open shapes and subtle ornamental bends that keep the overall texture airy rather than dense.
Best suited to display settings where its flourished capitals can be appreciated: invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, packaging, and short headlines or pull quotes. It can also work for short passages when set with comfortable spacing, especially in contexts aiming for a classic, handcrafted tone.
The font reads as refined yet playful, combining formal calligraphic cues with a friendly, storybook warmth. Its swashes and loops add a touch of theatrical charm, giving text a decorative, slightly nostalgic personality without feeling heavy or rigid.
Designed to evoke a formal handwritten look with decorative capital swashes and a lighter, more legible lowercase, balancing ornament with readability for elegant display typography.
Contrast is expressed through gentle thick–thin modulation rather than sharp strokes, and the line quality stays smooth and even across the set. The visual emphasis lands on uppercase forms—especially letters with large curls and extended terminals—so mixed-case typography tends to feel more decorative when capitals are used prominently.
