A delicate monoline display face with tall proportions and open, rounded bowls. Strokes are consistently thin and smooth, with gentle terminal curls and small swashes that appear most prominently in the capitals. The uppercase uses simplified, calligraphic constructions with looping entry/exit strokes, while the lowercase stays cleaner and more restrained, leaning toward a slim, modern text-like skeleton. Spacing reads fairly even in running text, with long ascenders/descenders and a light rhythm that keeps the page feeling bright and uncluttered.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings where the thin strokes and swashy capitals can be appreciated: branding wordmarks, invitation suites, product packaging, boutique signage, and editorial headlines. It can work in brief text passages at larger sizes, but its fine line weight and decorative caps will read most clearly when given ample size and whitespace.
The overall tone is graceful and slightly playful, combining formal calligraphic flourishes with a contemporary, minimalist lightness. It suggests boutique elegance—polished but not stiff—making it feel friendly, decorative, and refined at the same time.
The design appears intended to deliver an elegant calligraphic impression without connecting strokes, pairing decorative uppercase flourishes with a simpler, highly legible lowercase for practical typesetting in modern layouts.
Capitals carry much of the personality through curled terminals and occasional asymmetry, which can create a charming, individualized cadence in headlines. Numerals follow the same thin-line logic, with rounded forms and subtle curvature that keep them consistent with the letterforms.
