Italian Artisan Fine Shotgun Makers Coming to Toronto!
Brescia, Italy April 15th, 2010. Mario Cietterio, CEO of Fiera di Brescia today announced that an elite group of Italy’s finest shotgun manufacturers will be traveling to Canada for the first ever EXA International presentation of their universally acclaimed masterworks on June 12 &13, 2010 at the Metro Toronto Convention Center.
“For more than five hundred years, renowned craftsmen and gun makers have been creating the world’s finest sporting arms in Brescia’s mountainous Lombardy region of northern Italy. State-of-the-art technology melded with traditional hand craftsmanship contribute to Italy’s enviable reputation of being one of the most desired shotgun creators in the world.
“To the impassioned hunting and sporting arms community, our shotguns are synonymous with fine engraving, spectacular woodwork and precision metal-to-wood fit”, noted Mr. Cietterio.
To the shotgun purist, these Italian creations are an art form as delicate and refined as any renaissance painter would have been capable of creating. From the country that shares with us some of the world’s finest wine and cuisine; designs and builds the world’s the most revered automobiles; creates and presents some of the planet’s most stunning fashions on the runways of Milano, comes without question, some of the world’s finest sporting arms.
Fiera di Brescia, host of EXA International, The Italian Fine Gun exhibit has been offering this exclusive event in Brescia for the last 29 years. For the first time ever, they are availing an international sampling of their show for Canadians to experience this June 12 and 13th at the Metro Toronto Convention Center.
Canadian television host Thomas Pigeon of Canada’s most watched hunting adventure documentary series “Canada In The Rough” and his production company Dancing Buffalo Productions have been requested by EXA to appear and assist in promoting this special event. Having recently returned from EXA 2010 in northern Italy, Mr. Pigeon is quoted as saying, “Italian gun making is truly an art form. I have never, ever seen such an amazing array of superbly engineered, stunningly brilliant yet highly functional sporting arms in my life.”
From the large respected brands that are well known to Canadians to the smaller boutique artisans, this collection of gun makers and their prized works are coming this June to EXA International in Toronto. We believe they will dazzle the eyes and inspire the minds of avid collectors and shooting sports enthusiasts of all kinds. Most of these family owned businesses will have the actual proprietors, senior family members and/or renowned craftsmen in attendance, accompanied by a select few Italian dignitaries. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Canadian hunting and sport shooting community to interact person-to-person with these visionary artisans.
You are cordially invited to participate, compliments of Fiera Di Brescia, The Lombardy region of Italy and the Camera di Commercio Brescia (Brescia Chamber of Commerce).
