Brause was founded in Iserlohn, Germany, in 1850. The quality of its work quickly earned it international recognition among calligraphers and made it a key player in the calligraphy and linocut market. Brause has become the specialist for calligraphy, writing and drawing nibs.

Brause has recognised expertise in the manufacture of linocut tools. Linocutting is an engraving technique similar to printmaking. It is practised with a specific material such as linoleum, which is softer to work with than wood. Gouge nibs are used to hollow out the linoleum.
