A hairline, high-contrast script with a pronounced rightward slant and tall, willowy proportions. Strokes taper into sharp entry/exit terminals, with occasional teardrop-like starts and long ascending/descending extensions that create a vertical, fluttering rhythm. Counters are small and open, spacing is loose, and letterforms feel lightly connected in flow while still reading as individual characters in many places. Capitals are especially elongated and swashy, functioning as display-like lead forms, while lowercase remains compact with minimal x-height and long, elegant extenders.
Best suited to short-form display use where its thin contrast and swashy capitals can breathe—wedding and event invitations, boutique branding, beauty/lifestyle packaging, and pull quotes or headings. It can also work as a signature-style accent alongside a sturdier text face, but will perform most consistently when set large with generous tracking and leading.
The overall tone is refined and lyrical, with a breezy, handwritten sophistication. Its thin strokes and sweeping movement suggest intimacy and finesse, leaning toward a romantic, editorial feel rather than casual note-taking.
The letterforms appear designed to evoke a refined handwritten signature and calligraphic elegance, emphasizing tall proportions, graceful motion, and expressive capital forms. The delicate stroke weight and tapered terminals prioritize visual charm and sophistication over dense, small-size text performance.
The design relies on delicate hairlines and sharp contrast, so the texture is light and sparkling at larger sizes. Very tall ascenders/descenders and extended terminals add drama and spacing sensitivity, especially in mixed-case settings and around capitals.
