In this special episode of our pen enthusiast podcast, Joost Appelboom and co-host Clare Coco dive into the highlights of the Dutch Pen Show 2025 in Utrecht, joined by special guest Darla van de Riet, President of the Netherlands Pen Club. Although Clare couldn’t attend in person, she was there in spirit as Joost and Darla shared their experiences from the show floor—exploring rare finds, exciting releases, and the joy of connecting with fellow pen lovers.

Joost also introduced the three exclusive Dutch Pen Show fountain pens created by Scribo, Leonardo Officina Italiana, and Kaweco—each a stunning limited edition designed especially for the show. We talk about what makes pen shows so exciting, why they’re more than just shopping events, and how communities like the Netherlands Pen Club keep the love for writing instruments alive.

Whether you’re a seasoned collector or just discovering the world of fountain pens, this episode is a must-listen!
