A delicate cursive script with hairline upstrokes and slightly fuller downstrokes, producing a crisp calligraphic contrast. Letterforms are narrow and right-leaning with tall ascenders and descenders, and many characters finish with long, tapering entry/exit strokes. Curves are smooth and looping, with occasional open counters and slender joins that keep the texture light. Numerals follow the same thin, flowing construction and include graceful curves and extended terminals.
Best suited to display settings where its hairline detailing and flourished forms can be appreciated—wedding materials, invitations, beauty/lifestyle branding, boutique packaging, and short editorial headlines. It also works well for pull quotes and logo-type style wordmarks when given generous size and breathing room.
The overall tone is graceful and intimate, leaning toward a romantic, handwritten feel rather than a formal engraved script. Its airy rhythm and swashy terminals add a sense of flourish and personality, making the text feel light, stylish, and slightly whimsical.
Designed to emulate a light, pen-drawn cursive with fashionable contrast and decorative looping, prioritizing elegance and expressive motion over dense text performance. The tall proportions and extended terminals aim to create a refined signature-like presence in short phrases.
Stroke endings frequently taper to sharp points, and several capitals feature prominent loops and extended lead-ins that create a strong horizontal motion. Spacing appears tuned for a loose, flowing line, though the thinnest hairlines suggest it will read best when not set too small or on low-contrast backgrounds.
