My neighbour asked if I wanted this bike. Plan to fix it up and sell it or donate to my family’s cabin. Anybody have any idea on this company or the bike it’s self?
“Brevettato” is the Italian word for “patented”. Carnielli is (was?) an Italian manufacturer, they used to own the Bottecchia brand and they developed the Graziella, a very popular Italian folding bike. This tandem is actually based on the Graziella frame, you can see the single folding point in front of the front saddle.
Very nice finding, restore and enjoy!

Dude, “brevettato” means patented. The actual brand is Carnielli, a cheapish manufacturer from North-East Italy. Really nothing to see here.
