Compact, easy to use, and surprisingly versatile: the Brother CT1 Bellissimo makes it even easier to bring your creative ideas to life. Controlled via the Brother Artspira app, you can create your own creative projects and then cut your designs precisely with the Bellissimo.
Brother makes things particularly easy for you: the intelligent automatic blade automatically adjusts the cutting depth and cutting pressure. Even more convenient is the option to work without a cutting mat. Simply load your material, select your cut, and let the Bellissimo do the work for you.
Simply Load and Start Cutting
The Bellissimo CT1 was specifically designed for matless cutting. This makes preparation particularly easy and eliminates an extra step for many projects.
Depending on the application, you can choose between full cut, half cut, and perforation cut. For full cuts and smaller pieces of vinyl or paper that cannot be secured by the feed rollers, you can of course also use the cutting mat.
With a cutting width of up to 11.69 in (297 mm), the compact cutting machine offers plenty of space for a wide range of creative applications – from stickers and paper projects to personalized craft and vinyl projects.
Automatic Blade Instead of Lengthy Trial and Error
One of the key advantages of the Bellissimo CT1 is its intelligent automatic blade. It automatically determines the appropriate cutting depth and cutting pressure, reducing the amount of manual setup required.
This is particularly convenient if you regularly work with different materials or cutting modes. Instead of spending a lot of time finding the right settings, you can focus more on your actual project. Of course, if desired, you can still adjust the blade settings manually.
Your Ideas. Your Designs. Your Stickers.
With the Artspira app, the Bellissimo becomes a creative tool for bringing your own ideas to life. Draw designs directly in the app, edit existing designs, or convert images into cutting data.
You can also easily create your own stickers using the app's sticker function and then cut them with the Bellissimo. This allows you to create custom designs for personal projects, decorations, gifts, scrapbooking, labels, and much more.
The device connects conveniently via Bluetooth. This allows you to transfer your designs directly from the Artspira app to the Bellissimo.

Brother, once a small family business founded in 1908, has developed into a multinational company over the last 100 years. The brand began as a small sewing machine workshop and has always focussed on innovation and precision craftsmanship. Under the leadership of the Yasui brothers, Brother pioneered the production of affordable, high-quality sewing machines - from mass production in 1932 to the introduction of the first electronic sewing machine in 1976.
Today, Brother is known worldwide, not only for office technology, but also for its first-class sewing, embroidery and quilting machines aimed at beginners and professionals alike. The original pioneering spirit and commitment to creativity are still an integral part of the company's philosophy today.
