Invest with impact

Invest in shares of rare stringed instruments, and make an impact on the career of a musician.

Fine violins, violas and cellos have appreciated rapidly, becoming prohibitively costly for talented musicians to access. Strumenti.com provides patron-investors with access to these unique investments, while providing promising artists with great instruments to help further their careers.

The Potential for Stable Growth in Uncertain Times

Fine and rare violins have returned 6-7% on average since the 1960s, and have proven resilient to inflation and stock market downturns. Some of the best makers have appreciated 10-15% annually since 2000. Old Italian violins have shown more stable growth than the stock market over long periods.¹

Are you qualified to invest?

Our offerings are currently only open to accredited investors, which means you must meet certain income, net worth, and/or other requirements under SEC guidelines. The first time you invest at Strumenti.com, you’ll be asked to provide evidence to support your accredited investor status.

Why It Matters

The right instrument can make a huge difference to a musician. However, consolidation of fine and rare instruments into non-musician investor hands means that fewer and fewer of them are ever heard in performance.
