A delicate, hairline script with pronounced thick–thin modulation and a pronounced rightward slant. Letterforms are built from long, tapered entry and exit strokes, with generous loops and occasional extended swashes, especially in capitals. Proportions are tall and airy, with a compact lowercase body and rising ascenders that create a vertical, calligraphic rhythm. Spacing feels open and lightly connected, giving words a continuous flow while keeping individual letters distinguishable.
Well suited to wedding suites, formal invitations, luxury branding, and premium packaging where an elegant script is expected. It performs best in headlines, short phrases, monograms, and pull quotes; for longer text, larger sizes and generous tracking help preserve the fine details.
The overall tone is formal and polished, with a romantic, ceremonial feel reminiscent of engraved invitations and traditional penmanship. Its light touch and sweeping curves read as graceful and elevated rather than casual.
The design appears intended to emulate refined, pen-based calligraphy with an engraved, copperplate-like finish. It prioritizes graceful motion and ornamental capitals to create a high-end, ceremonial voice for display typography.
Capitals show the most ornamentation, using large initial curves and fine internal loops that add display character. Numerals follow the same calligraphic logic, appearing slender and slightly looping, and they blend well with the script’s rhythmic movement.
