A formal script with a calligraphic, pen-written construction and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms are tall and slender with long ascenders/descenders, small counters, and a relatively small x-height that emphasizes vertical rhythm. Terminals often finish in fine hairlines with gentle hooks and loops, while downstrokes swell into smooth, shaded stems; joins appear fluid in the lowercase, with many characters showing a connected cursive logic even when set as individual glyphs. Spacing and widths vary per character, giving the face a natural handwritten cadence while maintaining consistent slant and stroke behavior.
Best suited to display settings where its fine hairlines and flourishing capitals can be appreciated, such as wedding suites, event collateral, boutique branding, product packaging, and short headlines. It also works well for pull quotes or greeting-card style messaging when set with generous size and leading to preserve its delicate detail.
The overall tone is graceful and romantic, with a light, airy presence and a touch of playful flourish. Its looping capitals and hairline finishes evoke invitations and personal stationery, while the crisp contrast keeps it feeling polished rather than casual.
The design appears intended to emulate refined calligraphy with expressive capitals and smooth connected cursive forms, delivering a formal handwritten look that feels personal yet carefully crafted for consistent typesetting.
Capitals are especially decorative, featuring large entry/exit swashes and occasional asymmetrical flourishes that create strong word-shape and prominent initial letters. Numerals follow the same calligraphic contrast and curving structure, leaning toward an old-style, handwritten feel that pairs naturally with the letterforms.
