Borciani e Bonazzi | Made in Italy

Borciani Bonazzi has been manufacturing fine art brushes for over half a century. Today, our expert craftsmen still make our brushes exclusively by hand, one by one, using age-old techniques and top-quality materials consisting of natural hair or bristles as well as high performing synthetic fibre. Skill and enthusiasm result in a product of very high quality, widely used by artists, painters and preferred for a wide variety of restoration projects. Some of those include many of the most important monuments and works of art in Italy, for example the restoration work carried out both in Rome and Florence for the Jubilee.
