A delicate cursive script with a pronounced rightward slant and a calligraphic, pen-written rhythm. Strokes show strong thick–thin modulation, with hairline entry/exit strokes and thicker downstrokes that create a lively, flowing texture. Letterforms are tall and narrow with long ascenders and descenders, and many caps feature generous loops and extended swashes that sweep into and out of the characters. Lowercase forms are compact and tidy, with small counters and a bouncy baseline feel, while spacing remains tight and rhythmic to support connected word shapes.
Best suited for short to medium display settings where its swashy capitals and contrast can shine—wedding suites, boutique branding, beauty or lifestyle packaging, and editorial titles or pull quotes. It can also work for signatures, labels, and social graphics when used at comfortable sizes to preserve the fine hairlines.
The overall tone is graceful and expressive, leaning toward romantic and boutique styling rather than everyday handwriting. Its fine hairlines and looping capitals give it a refined, slightly whimsical personality suited to decorative, personality-forward typography.
Designed to evoke a hand-lettered, calligraphic signature look with elegant motion and decorative capitals. The narrow, tall proportions and pronounced contrast prioritize charm and sophistication in display typography over utilitarian text readability.
Capital letters carry much of the display character, with large entrance strokes, oval loops, and occasional crossover strokes that can add drama in headlines. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, mixing slender curves with thicker downstrokes for a cohesive set.
