A delicate, monoline handwritten script with a consistent rightward slant and softly tapered terminals. Letterforms are built from long, sweeping strokes and open counters, with frequent entry/exit strokes that encourage connection in running text. Proportions are tall and lean, with small lowercase bodies relative to prominent ascenders and descenders, and generous lateral movement created by extended joins and occasional swashes. Stroke texture feels pen-like rather than geometric, with subtle irregularities that maintain a cohesive rhythm across the alphabet and numerals.
Works best for short-to-medium display settings such as signature lines, invitations and announcements, boutique branding, packaging accents, and editorial pull quotes. In longer passages, it benefits from comfortable size and spacing to preserve clarity as the connecting strokes and extended joins become more prominent.
The overall tone is refined and personable, balancing informal handwriting with a light, elegant touch. Its flowing motion and airy spacing give it a graceful, intimate feel—more like a quick signature than a rigid calligraphic formal script.
Likely designed to emulate a quick, fluent pen script that reads as authentic and personal while still feeling polished. The emphasis on continuous motion, tall proportions, and restrained monoline stroke weight suggests a focus on elegant handwritten display rather than everyday text density.
Uppercase forms show more flourish and looping construction, while the lowercase prioritizes speed and continuity, producing occasional long cross-strokes and connective strands that can visually knit words together. Numerals follow the same single-stroke sensibility, staying slender and slightly varied to match the handwritten character.
