ValArt Information

Valart is a collector’s best friend – helping collectors know what they have, and what’s it’s worth. We give collectors order and pride in what they do – and we help financial and professional service providers serve this too often ignored, but highly lucrative, market. Founder Elliot is an avid collector, who built his collection after a degenerative medical condition forced him to abandon a youth national-level sports career. Thanks to collecting, Elliot overcame a difficult and potentially destructive time in his life. Yet Elliot faced increasing problems. He couldn’t get his collection insured. What’s more, if something happened to him, it would be very hard for his family to understand or value what he would pass on. And, as an everyday concern, Elliot was losing track of what he owned – and at risk of buying doubles. That’s why Elliot founded Valart – because it wasn’t just him facing these problems. The collectibles market is projected to be worth £386bn by 2028, yet it’s entirely underserved. From the outside, collecting can seem confusing. Collections are hard to value. Collectors are ignored and, worse, too often belittled. Valart exists not only so collectors can track, value and keep order across what they collect, but also so their collections can be valued and properly served by banks, insurers, probate lawyers, wealth managers and a whole array of professional and financial services. We help collectors take pride in what they value – and we open up their world to the businesses that should serve them. That’s why we’re a collector’s best friend.
