Dante del Vecchio , il migliore di tutti gli artisti esistiti di penne stilografiche ! Hai segnato la storia e l'orgoglio di noi Italiani nel mondo👍 Grazie per sempre del tuo prezioso contributo. Grazie
Such a gracious person who is full of passion about pens. I have met Dante twice and enjoyed our conversations. It is one of the reasons I have collected and enjoyed pens.
Thank you Dante, you’re a pen design icon. Appelboom shows their insight for pen selection by elevating his visibility. I just wish he interviewer would honour the significance of this moment and match Dante’s level of engagement.
Mr. Dante del Vecchio is undeniably genius, artist, and engineer. His Pineider La Grande Bellezza Gem Stone Lapis Lazuli is my favorite to draw from its leather case for writing letters and journal entries. Thank you for inviting such a monumental creator to your series.
Joost, ik had deze video nog niet gezien. Je hebt de absolute top penontwerper voor de camera gebracht. Ik heb veel van zijn pennen, waaronder twee setjes celluloid Federico II (zelfde model als de Ragtime) en een stuk of drie Rinascimento's. Allemaal uit zijn begintijd. Geweldig mooie pennen.
What a fascinating man! Few are they who can open the eyes of their hearts to see beauty that can be. Fewer still those who can then design and create the beauty perceived in their creative minds. You said it so well, “Dante, keep on creating such beautiful pens!” May we then use these instruments to share our own thoughts, our hearts, and our lives. Blessings on the creative work of “Appelboom Pennen,” for you inspire me to want to order from your company, one so far away from the West Coast of the USA. Why? I just want to reward your efforts to be in a business that brings such soul to work!
Fascinating interview, thanks for this. Design is one thing (the Ragtime 1 remains on my grail list for that reason, not the II) but pens must function. Thus the Van Gogh (demo acrylic is form+function = blessed bliss) with wet fine nib and perfect section heavy weight and girth and posted balance is in my top 3 of all time. And yes of course there's a long story that goes with it too. Visconti is a leader in unique FP design - what a pleasure to finally meet the guy responsible for making that so!
Joost, thank you so much for this "tour de force" of Mr. del Vecchio pens. Some of the background stories are just fascinating. Once again thanks for doing this series.
These pens are very classique, unique. I hope I will soon got one of these. Thank you for reviewing appelboom can you review the top three pens of ceo of montblanc
Se nella ricerca sui pennini si investisse quanto si investe sul design, avremmo già recuperato la maestria dei pennini flessibili di inizio 1900. Perfette le penne per i collezionisti ma almeno una per scrittori d'ogni tanto.
Such a gentleman and master craftman. Thank you very much for sharing such incredible pens with us.

What a beautiful video. So good to know about the unique pens Dante has created. He is the best pen designer in the world. Thank you Mr.Joost.
Every pen collector should have a Dante-pen

ALWAYS LOVE WATCHING MY PAISAN , HE’S THE MICHAELANGELO OF PEN DESIGNS
Thank you Appelboom for bringing us these videos and sharing many wonderful people and their favorite pens! Cheers
What a privilege hear the every pen history form a living legend in FP´s Mr Joost. Great video, thanks.
Nice pens! This brand was not in my radar. Thanks for the video Joost!
We are always here for new discoveries
I'm the proud owner of 5 of his designs. He is an inspiration
You are a lucky person!

Hij is zeer zeker een markante persoonlijkheid met heel veel kennis
My favourite Visconti pen is Visconti Divina Elegance, beautiful art piece 😊
It is now available in Bordeaux!
I have the Divina Blue Elegance. It’s pretty much a divine thing of beauty. I’m now on the brink of buying the Divina Bordeaux.

Thank you for the kind words, luckily we do ship to the US!
I am checking your Website! :)

It is always great to listen to Dante!
La sua collezione delle penne stilografiche è veramente stupenda! Grazie Dante per averla condiviso con noi. Mi lascia a bocca aperta la tua opera. 💖
Great video. Thank you both for letting us to witness this conversation. Feeling lucky
Grazie!
Thank you Dante for sharing these gems. My thanks to Appelboom for making this possible. Cheers
Glad you liked it
I met Dante when the Homo Sapiens was being released. Very nice man, and very enthusiastic about pens. He sold me right away on the Homo Sapiens.
The Homo Sapiens is a true icon
Joost, thank you so much for this "tour de force" of Mr. del Vecchio pens. Some of the background stories are just fascinating. Once again thanks for doing this series.
Glad you enjoyed the video!
2 awesome dudes-Joost and Dante! With some awesome pens!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That is all what is needed!
That Divine Proportion Pen is a Masterpiece.
Designed by a master!
Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing. Wonderful innovations and contributions to the pen industry.
Dante is a living legend
I love the look of their pens, if only they spent as much time on their nibs as on the rest.
I would really love those with a flex nib
The Pineider quill nib is great
Great Admiration to Mr del Vecchio, All the Best in Your new Era!
Absolutely fabulous. A fantastic innovator and creator of some great pens. And again breaking all the rules. 😊
We already knew it was impossible for Dante to pick just three pens...😅
These pens are very classique, unique. I hope I will soon got one of these. Thank you for reviewing appelboom can you review the top three pens of ceo of montblanc
We tried to get in touch with the CEO of Montblanc several times, but it is hard to arrange a meeting in the current Covid times
What a treat! Thank you.
This was a wonderful video. Probably my favorite pen of all time is my Michelangelo Grande.
Ahh that is an amazing piece indeed!
Somebody give this man a chair that doesn’t fking squeak
It really doesn't bother me. What Dante has to say deafens any auditory distraction! ❤ Maybe WD-40 or Jig-A-Loo for next time.
Functional artistry at its best!
One of a kind.
Maestro !
Such a nice guy Dante 😊
He is amazing!
Thank you Joost for you interview. You are amazing!
Fascinating thanks
Glad you liked it
Very interested it's a story of 40 yesars fountain pen history
The knowledge of Dante is fascinating
Dante is Il Maestro!
Totally agree on that!

Top 3 pens? there's about twenty on that table, and I bet you couldn't pin Dante down to just three!
You might be right!
@@AppelboomPennen Lol.
Would be interesting to know which Pen he had carrying in his jackets pocket (you can see the clip) ^^

Asombroso
Io, Io, Io, Io, Io, Io ,,, che palle. Lei lo sa bene caro Del Vecchio dove l'altro Dante sbatte i superbi. Boring.
