A flowing cursive with a pronounced rightward slant and long, tapering entry and exit strokes. Letterforms are built from smooth, continuous curves with frequent loops, giving capitals generous swashes and lowercase a compact, delicate structure. Strokes are relatively fine with subtle thick–thin modulation, and joins are rounded and fluid rather than angular. Ascenders and descenders are notably long, while the lowercase body remains small, producing an airy texture with plenty of vertical movement. Numerals follow the same handwritten rhythm, mixing open curves and simple, single-stroke constructions.
Well suited to invitations, announcements, and wedding stationery where elegant cursive is expected. It also fits boutique branding, beauty and lifestyle packaging, and signature-style wordmarks, especially when you can give it room to breathe and let the capitals lead.
The overall tone is graceful and intimate, with a polished handwritten feel that reads as romantic and slightly formal without becoming rigid. Flourished capitals add a celebratory, boutique character, while the light stroke and open curves keep it soft and approachable.
Designed to emulate refined pen handwriting with smooth connections and decorative capitals, balancing legibility with flourish for short display text. The intent appears focused on creating a sophisticated signature-like voice that feels personal yet curated.
Capitals carry most of the ornamentation, so headings can look expressive even with short words. The small lowercase body and long extenders create high visual contrast in line height, which can feel luxurious in display settings but may require generous leading for comfortable multi-line composition.
