A formal script with slender, hairline strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are strongly right-slanted with elongated ascenders and descenders, frequent entry/exit strokes, and generous looping swashes in capitals. Curves are smooth and continuous, with tight inner counters and a delicate baseline rhythm; joins appear implied and flowing even where characters are not fully connected. Numerals and lowercase maintain the same calligraphic contrast and angled stress, favoring graceful, tapered terminals over blunt finishes.
Well suited to short, prominent text such as wedding and event invitations, monograms, luxury branding, product packaging, and editorial headlines. It works best where its swashes and contrast can be appreciated—titles, name treatments, and decorative pull quotes—rather than dense, small-size paragraphs.
The overall tone is polished and graceful, with a decidedly formal, romantic character. Its flourishing capitals and delicate linework convey ceremony and tradition, evoking invitations, luxury stationery, and classic correspondence.
Designed to emulate formal calligraphy with an emphasis on graceful motion, dramatic capitals, and refined thick–thin contrast. The intent appears to be decorative elegance: creating a sense of occasion through sweeping forms and delicate, pen-like detailing.
Capitals carry the strongest personality, featuring large, airy loops and extended strokes that can occupy substantial horizontal space in display settings. The very small lowercase body relative to the tall extenders gives text a light, floating texture, while the hairline segments suggest best performance at larger sizes and on high-contrast printing or screens.
