I'm an architect and since I learned about his basic concept I often use his theory to criticize and to create good architecture. But what he wrote about architecture you sure also can say about products. There 4 episodes will be: 1. The most beautifu...

No need to apologize for your tastes. Remember the Latin expression “De gustibus non est disputandum” - in matters of taste there is no disputing. Thank you for another great presentation.
Thank you
As a Swede I like the name "Fika". 😁 The vintage pens seemed very nice! I may have to look into it. 😇🩷🙏🙌
😇🩵🙏🙌
Got this recently. it's a beautiful pen. I use Color Traveler's Battleship Tamato Gray as its ink. Beautiful ink. And it makes the pen look sleek.
I have never tried an ink from this company.
Oh, i realise that my phone autocorrect the name to tamato instead. It's actually battleship Yamato Gray... haha @Blue_Rosemarie
Enjoyed this video. The lighting reminds me of the videos that SBRE Brown generates. I used to take my higher end pens to work, lamy 2000, pilot metropolitan, platinum 3776 with a music nib etc. after I Lent my esterbrook j to a co worker to sign in for a shift. He/she Bent the nib " accidentally ". Haters gonna hate. Now I have several jinhao 80s and bought some lamy z- 50 nibs ( safari ) that can be easily swapped out and in different sizes. Also a couple of jinhao x750s with Goulet and kaigelu nibs. And 2 jinhao 9016s 1 in clear and the other in a brown demonstrator. The nibs are ok for now but loving the huge ink capacity converters as well as the thicker grip sections. Good luck in your new job. If a coworker asks to borrow your pen " real quick " hand them a ballpoint, your fountain pens will love you for it.
I know what you mean. I also got nibs bent by other people before!
I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THAT GUY AND HIS PHILOSOPHY, THANKS FOR SHARING !
You‘re welcome!
Nice video . Definitely make some more videos . Do some inks as well if that's your thing as well
Excellent pen collection! I like to collect machined titanium steel and aluminium pens because I find beauty in excellent engineering, but I do appreciate the artistry in the pen colours that are possible with resin and plastic.
A TWSBI is an excellent pen for trying out different inks. I would never do that with my Monblanc, in which I keep only MB Royal Blue. TWSBIs are practical and reasonably priced pens. That Diamine Ochre is lovely. The only browns I've ever used are MB Toffee and the old Waterman Havana (not sure what the new name is).
I have to admit I expected an architect to have the Homo Sapiens in that list! Very nice pens! Also since you like Jonathan Brook's work and blues I strongly suggest you try to get a pen in his Bohemian Twilight resin. As for my top 5, in no particular order: * Omas Milord Arco Bronze * Pelikan M620 Grand Place * Leonardo x Galen Leather Momento Magico LE Bohemian Twilight * Leonardo x Atlas Momento Zero Golden Abalone with Rose Gold Trim * Monteverde Regatta Black Mother of Pearl with Rose Gold Trim
I think the bohemian twilight is gorgeous. But somehow i‘m not drawn to own ond of these. I think the blue is too teal for me
Very nice pens you have!
Loving all of your Videos Rose..🥰
Thank you!
Rose Gold Antiqua has clogged every pen I've tried it in!
Me too, It was the first shimmer ink I ever bought and put me off shimmer inks for the longest time.
Good to know!
I love watching PIP reviews, it's a different take on how an ink behaves rather than just a swatch! Also, I love my TWSBI pens : )
YT recommended this today, so I watched it. Good selection of pens and yes, enjoyed seeing the video and your face. Keep up the good work!
@@Jestre thank you
That's a very beautiful ink colour. Great unboxing video - we all deserve to get some goodies!
Thank you
Now I know which brown ink to get to my new Benu Talisman Sandalwood. I have been looking at different brown inks since I got it a few days ago and Ochre was a favourite and on my wishlist but it's always nice to se a swatch to get a feel for an ink. Thank you! 😇🩷🙏🙌
You are welcome!
I have 5 fountain pens and they are all in the bag I carry to the office every day.
I love your idea for this series! Hope to see the other vids soon. Also, loving your pens ❤❤❤ Can't decide which is my prettiest pen (they're all gorgeous 😍)... But right now I have inked up my Pelikan M400 white tortoiseshell and M600 violet & white, and my heart skips a beat every time I look and write with them 🥰
Thank you. Thank you for sharing!
What a fun (and educational) exercise! I will follow along with my own fountain pen collection ☺♥ I think my most beautiful pens are two Sailor Pro Gear Slims: FIKA Hallongrotta and Princess Kaguya, Beno Euphoria Earl Grey Tea, Sheaffer 100 Coffee Edition, and Turningbydesigns in Cosmos Acrylic. As an honorary mention another sailor, the sailor 4 seasons Hisakata (a more afforable steel nib, but just as beautiful in my opinion).
Thank you for sharing!
Franklin Christoph Model 02 in emerald; Franklin Christoph Model 20 in black; Kaweco Dia 2 black; Aurora Optima black. These are the pens in my collection that I find most beautiful. Three of them also write beautifully. Also love the look of Diplomat Aero pens, though don't have one (yet).
Thank you for sharing. I‘m quite interested in the franklin Christoph pens. But I want to try them out first
Beautiful collection 🤩 I was recently about to buy the blue dunes but decided to order the m600 Cambon instead. It hasn’t arrived yet -- I keep thinking I made a mistake!!! Love yours!
The cambon in also a very beautiful pen though!
@@Blue_Rosemarie my favorite color is blue but when I saw that the cambon was US$399 on Atlas Stationers- I thought that was a phenomenal price and had to order one. I still want blue dunes 😭
Hello, Rosemarie, can you tell me what model of Platinum 3776 that is in the blue-grey finish, please. I already own the 'Blue Dunes' M805. Blue is my second favourite colour - green has always been my numero uno. Nevertheless, a fine Top Five ! Thank you for sharing, Andrew 🙂
Yes I can! It‘s a Limited edition from the shop Stationary Station in Japan. Called Tsukikusa.
Dankje, Rosemarie ! In Irish we say, Slan agus beannacht (bye & blessings), Aindriu 🙂
Great video, new sub! I appreciate your candidness and honesty about your opinions, I think it's refreshing. And your minimal editing, even when you forget something or say a word wrong is a great change of pace from all of the "polished" videos out there that come across as more fake. So, thanks for being genuine and letting your personality come through. I also don't edit my videos much, but more from a place of being lazy :) I like that you used elements of architecture from Vitruv to talk about the design elements of fountain pens, super cool idea. Keep up the great work! I'm looking forward to the next videos in the series.
Thank you very much! The editing is the best I can do ;)
Thank you for another great video! For me, my two most beautiful pens come from Pascal Choisy, a tiny artisan in the Champagne region of France. One is in juniper and smells as good as it looks, the other is made from the root of a Chardonnay vine and is beguiling in its shades of dark brown. By the way, what instrument do you play? Do you have any pens with nibs ground for writing music?
Interesting. I never heard about these pens. I played the flute.no I actually don‘t
Nice video ☺ I have seen reports that the black non-slip coating on the grip section can become sticky or peel off. Have you had any difficulty with this?
Thank you. I personally have not had this experience. But I think with this material on the grip section it can be an issue for sure after some time.
Great video, thank you! I loved the information about architecture and it does relate to making any object. I also have a Pelikan M805 Blue Dunes and agree it is a gorgeous pen. The chatoyance is beautiful and it is one of my most beautiful pens. I also have a Pilot Nagasawa Decimo in the Kobe gradation and it is also a very beautiful pen. The quality of the material is so rich and wonderful to the touch and the color (stone gray) is very elegant.
Thank you! What a special Decimo you have!
The bottle is lovely.
That Pelikan is gorgeous! My most beautiful pen is also a Pelikan, the Glauco Cambon. The guilloche process creates an almost holographic effect that's fascinating.
I didn‘t know this pen until you shared. Thank you Edit: I looked it up and I know it. 😉it is soooooo beautiful!
You can pop out the cap liner from the Kaweco sport and clean behind it! I found videos on TH-cam Tube showing how and it turned out to be easy!
I didn‘t know that! Thank you!!!
your English is great. Love your videos. Face good too :D
My most beautiful pens are my Leonardo Momento Zero Grande Sand, Visconti Mirage Mythos Zeus, Esterbrooke Estie Petrified Forest and Pelikan Souvaran 800.
Thank you for sharing. You have some awesome pens.
Just graduated from architecture school 👋 and I'm glad to be in this profession because I can "justify" this costly addiction 😂😅🥹
Congratulations! That‘s a big milestone! Haha you need good tools in order so be able to deliver good work 😉
@@Blue_Rosemarie awe, thanks ❤️ and yes, that's "literally" what I'm thinking when I'm window shopping for fountain pens (and inks, notebooks, etc.) 😹😅
great collection, my two favorites are the Benu and the Nuts
Thank you to brought Vitruve's concepts in the world of Fountain pens, interesting. Can't wait to see the 2 other episodes
I quite enjoyed this. I liked how you incorporated this chap’s philosophy into it. Well done!
Thank you
Good video, not sure about beautiful but here goes Gravitas Torque in orange, my teal vintage Parker 51 with gold cap, Kaweco Sport in Bronze, Lamy 2000 and my Ensso Bolt.
Thank you for sharing
My top 3 most beautiful pens that I own are: 3) Benu Euphoria Caviar -- This one is like your Euphoia Jazz but in gray with silver glitter. It makes me think of finding gemstones in a stone. Very beautiful. 2) LAMY Al-Star Blackpurple -- There is something about the design of this pen that just works for me, especially that wire clip. The triangular grip section is a bit too narrow for my taste, but I love that you can fully disassembled this pen for a good cleaning. Beautiful and very useful. 1) Sailor Pro Gear Slim Shikiori Vega -- This one is a solid dark blue with a subtle sparkle and gold trim. The design and build quality of this pen are just amazing. Solid and beautiful.
Thank you for sharing. The sailor sounds woderful!
From an aesthetic perspective, these are my favorites from my smaller collection: - Lamy Vista (with lamy z28 converter to add some contrast) - Lamy Logo & CP1 (sleek look, love the logo's brushed finish) - Pelikan M205 blue marble (kinda similar to your M805) - Pelikan twist frosted blue (looks like an icicle) - Platinum 3776 Century bourgogne (yours is gourgeous, my pick of the bunch) - Platinum Curidas matte black (so "ugly" that becomes cool) - Sailor pro-color 500 stardust (looks exactly like a night sky)
Thank you for sharing! I also had the old version of the m200 blue marbled
Interesting. I came here to learn something about fountain pens and learned something about architecture. Still fun to watch, although I feel to disagree with the dead dudes opinion about all three criterias having to be equaly developed. Did you know you can eat green haselnuts and raw chestnuts? So different than the usual nuts. I suppose my most beatiful pens are my two Lamy Studio in glacier and a clear Platinum Preppy. Odd, I know, but I just like how clear the Preppy is, how true the polycarbonate feels, that it is eyedropperable and has a very good sealing snap cap.
I actually did eat green haselnuts. And I love chestnuts! Thank you for sharing
I'll have to give a good think on which pens fit that criteria!
Sailor PGS for the win.
PS I know you are focusing on pens, but I recently acquired a Montblanc sketching pencil, called the "Leonardo." I think it is discontinued. It uses 5.3 mm lead. It is breathtakingly beautiful. I bought it at a very, very reasonable price, but I feel guilty, because I am not a good artist, and this pencil deserves a worthy artist. It is a wonder of form, solidity, and function.
I think you are a great owner for this special piece. You appreciate it for how it is.
