Established in 1925 and still currently operating,
The Colombo family has been creating and minting medals since 1925 and today represents one of the most respected European industries in this sector. It all began in Milan, in Bruno Colombo's small artisan workshop. Here, the artisan's creative talent is combined with a faithfulness to the inspiration of the Italian Renaissance, the era that saw the birth and flourishing of the art of medal making. This winning approach has allowed the company to achieve ever-increasing success with highly prestigious artistic productions. The small artisan workshop thus became a powerful and innovative industrial enterprise, meticulously crafted to the smallest detail: from the stability of treatments to the complete guarantee of weight and purity of the precious metals. The Colombo family continues its creative tradition by entrusting the creation of its products to internationally renowned artists, designers, and medalists. Colombo Medaglie has always been involved in the religious, civil, military, and sports sectors.
