A delicate, monoline cursive with a consistent rightward slant and long, fluid strokes. Letterforms are narrow and tall, with generous ascenders/descenders and a noticeably small x-height that gives the lowercase a lighter, more elevated rhythm. Curves are smooth and looping, while entry and exit strokes often extend into thin tails that help words feel continuous even when letters aren’t strictly connected. Capitals are simplified and graceful, matching the lowercase’s flowing momentum without heavy ornamentation.
Well-suited to invitations, greeting cards, boutique branding, beauty and lifestyle packaging, and short editorial headlines where a personal, handwritten signature feel is desired. It also works nicely for pull quotes and social graphics at moderate-to-large sizes where the fine strokes and tall proportions can breathe.
The overall tone feels intimate and refined, like neat handwriting with a poised, fashion-forward sensibility. Its light touch and open counters read as calm and gentle, lending a tasteful, understated elegance rather than a bold or playful voice.
Designed to capture clean, stylish handwriting with a smooth, continuous rhythm—prioritizing grace and legibility in display settings while preserving the spontaneity of a hand-drawn script.
Spacing appears slightly loose for a script, aided by slender strokes and extended terminals that keep lines from feeling dense. Numerals follow the same handwritten logic with simple forms and subtle curvature, maintaining a cohesive, personal texture across mixed content.
