A delicate, right-slanted script with thin strokes and gently tapered terminals that mimic a flexible pen. Letterforms are narrow and rhythmically spaced, with fluid entry and exit strokes and frequent looped constructions in capitals and key lowercase forms. The overall texture is open and light, with prominent ascenders/descenders and a notably small x-height that gives lines a tall, graceful profile. Uppercase characters lean toward ornamental, with generous swashes and occasional extended cross-strokes, while lowercase remains compact and quick, maintaining a consistent forward motion.
Best suited to short, prominent text where its swashy capitals and delicate stroke work can be appreciated—wedding and event stationery, greeting cards, boutique branding, product labels, and pull-quotes. It works well for display sizes and names or phrases, while long passages may feel lightweight and visually busy due to the small x-height and high ornamentation in capitals.
The font conveys a polished, intimate tone—like neat, stylized handwriting with a touch of formal flourish. Its airy line weight and looping gestures feel romantic and classic, suited to expressive, celebratory messaging rather than utilitarian text.
Designed to emulate graceful pen-written cursive with a refined, decorative emphasis—especially in the uppercase—balancing handwriting spontaneity with consistent, catalog-ready forms for display typography.
Capitals are especially decorative and can dominate the line, creating strong word-shapes in initials and headline settings. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic, appearing slender and slightly individualized, which reinforces the personal, crafted character of the face.
