A slanted calligraphic roman with brush-pen flavor and clear stroke modulation. Letters show rounded, bracketed serif-like entries, tapered joins, and teardrop terminals that give the strokes a soft, inked finish. Capitals are generous and occasionally looped or lightly swashed, while lowercase forms stay compact with a noticeably low x-height and open counters. Numerals read as oldstyle, with varying heights and a flowing, handwritten rhythm that keeps spacing lively without becoming chaotic.
Well-suited to short display settings where the expressive capitals and calligraphic rhythm can be appreciated—wedding or event invitations, boutique branding, product packaging, certificates, and editorial headlines. It can also work for pull quotes or short passages when set with comfortable tracking and generous leading.
The tone is refined and traditional, like formal correspondence or bookish display copy set with a personal hand. Its gentle curves and ink-like tapers add warmth and charm while still feeling orderly and composed.
Designed to evoke formal penmanship in a tidy, font-ready structure: expressive but controlled, with classic proportions and tasteful flourishes to elevate display typography.
Overall color is moderately dark with smooth, continuous curves and minimal abrupt angles. The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, and many glyphs finish with small curls or flicks that reinforce a penned, crafted look.
