A formal handwritten script with tall ascenders, compact lowercase, and a lively baseline rhythm. Strokes show pronounced contrast between hairline entry strokes and fuller downstrokes, with tapered terminals and occasional teardrop-like finishes. Letterforms lean on looping joins and open counters, mixing connected and semi-connected behavior depending on the glyph, and featuring prominent swashes on capitals. The overall texture is airy and vertical, with narrow proportions and generous internal white space that keeps dense words from feeling heavy.
Works best for short to medium display settings where its swashes and contrast can be appreciated, such as wedding suites, invitations, boutique branding, packaging labels, and pull quotes. It can also suit headings or signatures in editorial layouts when paired with a simpler text face for body copy.
The font conveys a polished, romantic tone—like neat calligraphy done with a pointed pen. Its flourishes add a hint of whimsy while staying composed and traditional, making it feel suitable for celebratory or ceremonial messaging.
Designed to emulate formal, pointed-pen handwriting with elegant capital flourishes and a refined vertical rhythm. The narrow, high-contrast construction aims to deliver a graceful, upscale presence while keeping words compact and visually tidy.
Capitals are notably decorative and varied, with long entry strokes and occasional cross-strokes that create distinctive silhouettes. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same calligraphic contrast and narrow stance, giving mixed-content lines a consistent, crafted look.
