This font is inspired by an exercise in penmanship from "The Zanerian Manual of Alphabets and Engrossing," a book digitized by David Grimes (https://masgrimes.com/).

I scanned and digitized it, transforming it from back italic to regular.

It is a calligraphic font created with a double-pointed pen, which is light on the left and broad on the right. This style resembles the "Scroll Nibs 10" from William Mitchell Ltd, the "Twin Nib" from Kaweco, or the "Twin Italic Point" from Bock.
