GrandTour Collection originates from the generational experience of the Borrazzi family, craftsmen and antique dealers of Rome,
The goldsmith and watch repair workshop was founded in 1947, and laid the basis for a flourishing tradition in artisanal handicraft. The third generation of the Borrazzi family, Michela and Roberto, combined the handicraft traditions of their grandparents with the experience of their parents. Their gallery in Via dei Coronari shifted into the creation of a new collection of jewels, GrandTour. During the years spent working in an environment rich of ancient objects, and magnificent art collections, the antique shop of Roberto and Michela has seen a wide variety of techniques, colours, shapes, ideas, precious objects, different styles, cameos of every type and several engraving collections. During the classical period these collections were considered an inventory of works of art, which have deeply influenced the GrandTour Collection.
