A slanted calligraphic italic with flowing, unconnected letterforms and pronounced stroke modulation. Strokes move from fine hairlines into rounded, brush-like terminals, with frequent entry/exit flicks and occasional swash-like caps. Proportions feel generous and open, with a relatively small x-height against tall ascenders and descenders, and a rhythm that alternates between compact joins and wide, sweeping curves. The overall drawing is smooth and consistent, emphasizing continuous motion rather than rigid geometry.
Best suited to display typography where its contrast and flourishes can be appreciated—wedding and event invitations, brand marks, boutique packaging, certificates, and editorial headlines. It can work for short passages or pull quotes at comfortable sizes, while long body text may feel busy due to the strong slant, contrast, and decorative capitals.
The font conveys a classic, courtly elegance—decorative without becoming ornate to the point of illegibility. Its soft curves and tapered finishes give it a romantic, traditional tone reminiscent of formal correspondence and vintage titling. The lively slant and flourishy capitals add a sense of ceremony and graciousness.
Designed to emulate a controlled pen or brush script in a formal italic style, prioritizing graceful motion, expressive capitals, and a polished, traditional finish. The emphasis appears to be on creating an upscale, celebratory voice for titles and standout phrases rather than neutral, continuous reading.
Uppercase letters carry the most flourish, with distinctive looped strokes and extended terminals that create strong word-shapes in display settings. Numerals follow the same italic calligraphic logic, with curved forms and tapered starts/ends that keep them stylistically aligned with the letters.
