A delicate, monoline cursive with a consistent rightward slant and an overall narrow, upward-leaning rhythm. Strokes are smooth and lightly tapered at terminals, with occasional looped joins and long, sweeping entry/exit strokes that create a continuous handwritten feel. Uppercase forms are taller and more gestural, often built from a single flowing stroke, while lowercase stays compact with a small core height and frequent ascenders/descenders that add vertical sparkle. Numerals echo the same calligraphic motion, with open curves and understated, pen-like terminals.
Well-suited to invitations, thank-you cards, boutique branding, and packaging where a refined handwritten voice is desirable. It works best at display and short-text sizes—names, headings, pull quotes, or signature-style lockups—where the looping connections and tall capitals can be appreciated without crowding.
The tone is graceful and personable, like a neat signature or a quick note written with confidence. Its lightness and looping forms suggest intimacy and softness rather than boldness, giving text a polished, romantic character.
The design appears intended to emulate a tidy, modern handwritten script with a signature-like flow: narrow proportions, consistent pen pressure, and expressive capitals that add flourish while keeping the overall texture clean and readable for a cursive style.
Letterforms maintain a steady baseline and consistent slant, but retain natural handwritten irregularities in stroke endings and curvature that keep it from feeling mechanical. The extended swashes in capitals and some lowercase joins can increase horizontal movement, especially in longer words.
