Finally took home this 1971 Doniselli Turchino
So I just pick this 1971 Doniseli from the original owner, who has been repainted in the 80s. Can’t wait to start on the build. Looks really pretty in person and the weird bottle boss.

Looks like a great frame.
Do you know anything about the brand? What are your build plans for her?

Did you find a source of information about your Doniselli? Mine was bought second-hand in 1948. I would like to find some information about it.

Doniselli did catalog sales of parts since at least 1927. The catalogs were very comprehensive, carrying not only components, but also frame building supplies and tools. They also carried their own house-brand bicycles. I have no idea who they used as builders.
