Testimony

F.A.Q

A certificate of authenticity is an official document that attests to the origin, authenticity and uniqueness of a work of art. It is usually issued by the artist himself or by an art expert to guarantee its authenticity.

CoAs play a crucial role in the art world by making it possible to distinguish an authentic work from a counterfeit. They offer buyers and collectors a tangible proof of the authenticity of the work, thus reinforcing the trust and value of art.

To create a professional CoA, you will need to customize a certificate template with specific details about the work, such as its title, date of creation, materials used, and any other relevant elements. Be sure to sign the certificate by hand to confirm its authenticity. You can also add security features such as holograms, unique serial numbers, or QR codes to prevent counterfeiting.

In general, CoAs do not have a fixed validity period. They are considered permanent, unless there is a valid reason to question the authenticity of the work. It is important to keep precious CoAs for a work of art, even long after its purchase.

Yes, contemporary artists are encouraged to issue their own CoA. By doing so, they establish a direct link between themselves and their creations, thus strengthening their credibility. The CoAs issued by the artists are generally indisputable because they come directly from the creator of the work. This is a common practice and recommended for artists who wish to protect their creations on the art market.
