A tall, narrow script with a calligraphic, handwritten rhythm and pronounced contrast between thick downstrokes and hairline joins. Letterforms are upright with elongated ascenders and descenders, frequent looped entries/exits, and softly rounded terminals that suggest a pen or brush. Proportions are condensed overall, while individual glyphs show subtle width variation and lively, slightly irregular stroke behavior that keeps the texture organic rather than mechanical.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where its narrow proportions and high-contrast strokes can remain crisp and legible—such as invitations, event materials, boutique logos, labels, packaging, and editorial or social headlines. It can work as an accent face paired with a simple sans or serif for supporting text.
The tone reads charming and expressive—equal parts refined and playful. Its looping forms and slender silhouettes give it a romantic, boutique feel, while the handwritten irregularities add warmth and approachability.
The design appears intended to provide a formal yet friendly handwritten script for decorative typography, emphasizing vertical elegance, looping connections, and high-contrast calligraphic strokes to create memorable wordmarks and expressive titles.
Uppercase forms are stylized and decorative, leaning on tall verticals and occasional interior loops, which can make initials feel prominent in display settings. Numerals follow the same narrow, calligraphic construction, with elegant curves and light hairlines that match the script’s overall cadence.
