About Us

Where Metal Holds Memory

At Brasura, we believe that every piece of metal carries within it the memory of time. Our creations are not simply objects of beauty—they are vessels of history, shaped by human hands across generations.

Each Brasura piece begins not in our workshop, but in the past: in the villages of Upper Egypt, the winding streets of Cairo, and the quiet countryside where copper and brass were once forged and used in daily life. These metals—some shaped more than a century ago—bear the marks of age, the warmth of touch, and the spirit of those who once lived with them.

We seek out these relics, not as scrap, but as silent witnesses of history—ready to be reborn through craftsmanship, artistry, and purpose.

From Relics to Living Art

In the hands of Egypt’s finest engravers and metalworkers, each salvaged piece of copper or brass becomes a unique work of art. No two Brasura creations are ever alike. Each begins as a collaboration between artist and material, guided by traditions of geometry, symbolism, and storytelling that reach back to the Fatimid, Ayyubid, and Mamluk eras.

Our Story

Craft Beyond Time

This is not work that can be replicated by machines or hurried hands. Every engraving is cut entirely by hand, each movement shaped by decades of mastery. An entire piece may take weeks or months to complete, with details so fine they only reveal themselves in certain light—or to those who take time to see.

Such skill grows rarer with each passing generation. Many of our artisans are the last in a lineage, carrying knowledge passed directly from fathers and grandfathers. With fewer apprentices to inherit the trade, each Brasura creation becomes not only an artwork—but a legacy.

Carrying Forward a Lineage

Our craftsmen do more than preserve a fading skill—they embody centuries of accumulated wisdom. Their patterns are rooted in geometry and meaning, echoing ancient beliefs, folklore, and values.

In their hands, a simple tray, vessel, or bowl transforms into a living record of culture—a reminder of Egypt’s artistic soul and a bridge between past and present.
