A formal, calligraphic script with a pronounced forward slant and crisp thick–thin modulation. Strokes taper into hairline entry and exit strokes, with occasional teardrop terminals and gently swelling downstrokes that give the letters a polished, pen-driven rhythm. Uppercase forms are spacious and expressive, featuring extended curves and restrained flourishes, while the lowercase maintains compact counters and a relatively low x-height for a sophisticated, vertical feel. Numerals follow the same high-contrast logic, with smooth curves and refined terminals that match the letterforms.
Best suited for display settings such as wedding suites, event collateral, certificates, beauty and fashion branding, and short editorial headlines. It also works well for monograms and name-focused logotypes where the expressive capitals and delicate hairlines can be shown at generous sizes.
The overall tone is upscale and ceremonial, evoking invitations, luxury branding, and classic stationery. Its smooth joins and sweeping capitals feel romantic and poised, balancing softness with a slightly formal, traditional presence.
Designed to emulate refined pointed-pen lettering in a consistent, typeset form, prioritizing elegance and flourish for prominent words and names. The character set emphasizes expressive capitals and high-contrast strokes to create a premium, formal impression in display typography.
Stroke connections appear selective rather than continuously cursive, helping individual letters remain distinct in longer words. The texture in text is airy and rhythmic, with prominent ascenders/descenders and graceful loops that create a lively baseline movement.
