A flowing handwritten script with brush-pen characteristics and clear pressure-driven modulation. Strokes taper to fine entry and exit points, with occasional thicker downstrokes that create a lively rhythm. Letterforms are slender and slightly right-leaning, with open counters and generous whitespace that keeps words from feeling heavy. Many lowercase forms use soft loops and long, threadlike ascenders/descenders, while capitals are simpler, gestural, and designed to lead into the following letters rather than stand as rigid monograms.
Well suited to short-to-medium display text where a handwritten voice is desired: invitations, greeting cards, packaging accents, boutique branding, and pull quotes. It performs best with comfortable tracking and moderate sizes where the fine hairlines and tapered joins remain clear.
The overall tone feels personal and composed—more like neat, expressive handwriting than formal copperplate. Its light touch and looping movement suggest a gentle, poetic mood, while the brisk stroke endings add a casual, contemporary energy.
Designed to capture an elegant everyday script look—legible and consistent, but with enough stroke variation and looping forms to preserve the feel of real pen movement. The intent appears to balance charm and readability for modern lifestyle and stationery-oriented design.
Texture is intentionally a bit irregular, with small variations in curve smoothness and stroke finish that read as hand-drawn authenticity rather than mechanical precision. Numerals follow the same airy, pen-made logic, with rounded shapes and tapered terminals that match the alphabet.
