BREUSA | BREUZA

Both specific to the Turin area, Breusa in particular of Pomaretto and Perosa Argentina as well as Breuza which is also widespread in Pinasca, Perrero and Salza di Pinerolo always in the Turin area, should originate from the carbonari trade and derive from a distortion of the French term braise ( merchant or producer of charcoal).
