Luigi Crespi

A passion for nature and an absolutely uncommon genius have made Luigi Crespi a unique figure in the world of bonsai and landscaping. Eclectic and always oriented towards experimentation and innovation, yet with a strong focus on tradition, he was the first in Italy to design Japanese gardens, creating them with original materials imported directly from Italy. He founded Crespi Bonsai, the Crespi Bonsai Museum, and the Bonsai University..

"Caring for a bonsai is not just art, it's also a philosophy of life. It's pure passion, a direct connection with nature, because a bonsai is a living work of art in constant transformation that allows you to closely observe the seasons passing, each change arousing emotion."

Luigi Crespi has written numerous books on bonsai, published by major publishing houses such as Fabbri and Sperling & Kupfer. In 1991, he received the "Ambrogino d'Oro." Since 2006, he has been an international consultant for the WBFF World Bonsai Friendship Federation, a federation that works globally to promote bonsai. "Daily caring for a bonsai allows you to deepen your relationship with nature and rediscover the natural biological rhythms that are the basis of a balanced existence." In 2008, he received the E.S.A. (European Suiseki Association) Award and the WBFF (World Bonsai Friendship Federation) Award for his commitment to promoting bonsai in Europe over the past thirty years. In 2010, he became an honorary member of Nippon Bonsai Sakka Kyookai Europe, founded by masters Tomio Yamada and Hideo Suzuki.

The first Italian importers

Crespi Bonsai was the first company to import bonsai to Italy and has earned a solid leadership position in its sector, thanks primarily to the rigor and professionalism that have always distinguished its decisions. It currently operates throughout the country with both its own stores and affiliates, and boasts a network of over a thousand retailers. The Crespi Bonsai online store has been open since 2002, offering customers a carefully curated selection of products and fast, efficient service. The Crespi Bonsai stores in Parabiago (Milan), Milan, and Brescia feature a refined style with a highly distinctive design: fine furnishings inspired by Japanese simplicity and display spaces carefully designed to showcase and showcase the natural beauty and quality of the bonsai. The Crespi Bonsai headquarters is a true corner of the Orient just outside Milan. Upon entering, visitors enter a captivating world of passion. Awaiting you is the tasteful display of the items on sale, the centuries-old works of the Crespi Bonsai Museum, the large green spaces of the Japanese gardens and above all the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff.

The highest quality

Before being put on sale, every item offered by Crespi Bonsai is carefully examined to ensure customers receive a high-quality, prestigious product. Only bonsai that meet the quality standards consistent with the company's tradition are awarded the distinctive Crespi Bonsai guarantee triangle.

To achieve this goal, plant care is entrusted to trained staff who regularly attend refresher courses and training.
