A delicate calligraphic italic with hairline-thin strokes and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms lean forward with a smooth, pen-driven rhythm, showing tapered terminals, fine entry/exit strokes, and occasional extended swashes—especially in capitals. Counters are open and oval, spacing feels airy, and the overall texture stays light on the page while maintaining crisp, high-contrast detail in curves and joins.
Best suited to display sizes where the hairline contrast and swashes can be appreciated: wedding suites, invitations, certificates, refined branding, beauty or fragrance packaging, and editorial headlines or pull quotes. It can also work for short phrases and signatures where a light, graceful presence is desired.
The tone is polished and poetic, conveying a sense of ceremony and softness rather than everyday utility. Its flowing curves and restrained flourishes give it a classic, romantic feel suited to elevated, tasteful settings.
The design appears intended to emulate a controlled pointed-pen or formal script sensibility while remaining unconnected, combining italic calligraphic structure with selective swash drama. It prioritizes elegance and a light, airy page color for decorative and formal typography.
Capital letters carry much of the personality, with looping strokes and occasional long tails that can affect line spacing and kerning in display contexts. Numerals follow the same italic, high-contrast logic, appearing slender and elegant with minimal weight and generous whitespace around forms.
