A delicate, pen-like script with a pronounced rightward slant and long, tapering strokes. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with generous ascenders and descenders and frequent looped constructions, especially in capitals and in letters like g, j, y, and z. Strokes read as very thin overall, with subtle thick–thin modulation and smooth, continuous curves; crossbars and terminals are often extended into fine, hairline sweeps. Spacing is open and rhythmically uneven in a natural way, and the numerals match the same airy, calligraphic construction.
Well suited for wedding stationery, invitations, greeting cards, and boutique branding where an elegant handwritten impression is desired. It also works nicely for short display settings—names, signature-style marks, headings, and pull quotes—where its flourished capitals and long extenders can breathe.
The font conveys a refined, intimate tone—light, graceful, and slightly dramatic. Its looping capitals and hairline finishes feel formal and romantic, with a handwritten immediacy that suggests personal notes and elegant signatures rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to emulate a light, fast calligraphic hand: tall, narrow forms with looping joins and expressive swash-like terminals. It prioritizes elegance and personal character over neutrality, using fine strokes and extended curves to create a graceful, signature-forward voice.
Capitals feature prominent entry/exit swashes and tall proportions, creating strong vertical emphasis in titles. The very fine strokes and long extenders make it visually striking at larger sizes, while dense text may appear wispy due to the hairline weight.
