Fine art insurance
Specialist insurance for fine art and collections, whether contemporary or classic, an individual item or a collection.
Protecting fine art and collections for future generations
We define fine art as anything that could be bought or sold at a reputable auction house. If items are held privately or by institutions; and if they are on display, on loan, in storage or in transit, your item or collection will have a specific set of risks.
Your policy will be tailored to those risks using specialist covers designed specifically for fine art and not found in a standard policy.
We work closely with artisan repairers, experts in restoration and skilled craftspeople to ensure the professional and sympathetic restoration of all things irreplaceable.
