A delicate, fast-moving script with hairline strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation that follows an italic slant. Forms are narrow and vertically oriented, with long ascenders/descenders and compact lowercase proportions that keep the x-height visually small. Curves are smooth and continuous, with occasional looped entries and exits, and capitals often feature extended swashes and open counters that add height and drama without adding weight. Spacing is generous enough to keep the light strokes from clumping, while letter widths vary naturally like pen-written text.
Well-suited to display use where its fine strokes and swashy capitals can be appreciated—such as invitations, wedding suites, boutique branding, beauty and lifestyle packaging, social graphics, and short headline treatments. It works best with ample size and breathing room, and pairs naturally with a restrained sans or serif for supporting text.
The overall tone feels graceful and intimate—more like a personal signature or stylish note than a utilitarian handwriting. Its lightness and flowing rhythm suggest sophistication and softness, lending a romantic, upscale mood.
Designed to capture the look of refined, pen-written cursive with a signature-like cadence—prioritizing elegance, motion, and expressive capitals over dense text readability.
Uppercase shapes are more decorative than the lowercase, introducing larger gestures and longer terminals that can dominate a line at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same slender, handwritten logic, appearing simple and slightly stylized rather than strictly geometric, which helps them blend with the script.
