A delicate handwritten script with tall, slim letterforms and pronounced vertical rhythm. Strokes alternate between hairline entry/exit strokes and fuller downstrokes, creating a calligraphic high-contrast feel with occasional tapered terminals. Curves are smooth and slightly elastic, with frequent loops on ascenders/descenders and a gently irregular, hand-drawn cadence. Spacing is open and the overall silhouette stays slender, with many forms built from narrow ovals and long stems.
Best suited to display settings where its fine contrasts and looping details can remain crisp—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, beauty/lifestyle packaging, social graphics, and short quote headlines. It works particularly well for names, titles, and accent text, and is less appropriate for dense paragraphs or very small sizes where hairlines may disappear.
The font reads as graceful and slightly playful, pairing a formal, penned elegance with a casual handwritten charm. Its looping forms and airy counters give it a romantic, boutique tone suited to expressive, personality-led typography rather than utilitarian text.
The design appears intended to emulate a neat, modern calligraphy hand: tall proportions, elegant contrast, and gentle flourishes that add personality while keeping the overall structure legible for display use.
Uppercase letters tend to be tall and simplified with minimal joining, while lowercase forms show more cursive connections and flourished entry strokes. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, with thin lead-ins and slender, elongated shapes that match the script’s vertical emphasis.
