A delicate, right-leaning calligraphic hand with smooth, continuous curves and subtly tapered stroke endings. The letterforms are compact and vertically oriented, with generous internal whitespace and open counters that keep the texture light. Capitals are simplified and flowing rather than ornate, while lowercase forms show looped ascenders and long, descending strokes that add a gentle rhythm. Numerals follow the same slender, drawn-with-a-pen character, with soft curves and minimal weight at joins.
Well suited to invitations, announcements, and greeting cards where a refined handwritten voice is desired. It can also support short brand lines, product labels, and editorial pull quotes, especially when set with ample tracking and paired with a simple serif or sans for body text.
The overall tone feels graceful and personal, like neat ink handwriting used for formal notes. Its light footprint and fluid movement read as calm, tasteful, and slightly romantic rather than loud or playful.
Designed to emulate a tidy, formal pen script with unconnected letters—capturing the charm of handwriting while maintaining a controlled, consistent typographic rhythm.
Extenders and swashes are present but restrained, giving a handwritten elegance without heavy decoration. The slant and consistent spacing create a smooth line of text, though the thin strokes and fine details suggest it will be most comfortable at moderate to larger sizes.
