Fine Arts Insurance
Chubb Masterpiece® Valuable Articles Coverage Highlights
We offer flexible, worldwide coverage options to meet your unique needs, and cover many fine art losses with no deductible.
We only require appraisals for individual fine art items valued at $250,000 or more. Otherwise, we just need a detailed description and estimated value.
We’ll work with you upfront to determine the value of your fine art. Then, for covered total losses, we’ll make sure you get 100 percent of the agreed value as a cash settlement.
If you already have fine art that is itemized on your policy, your newly acquired artwork is covered for up to 90 days (25 percent of the itemized coverage).
If the market value of an item before a loss exceeds the amount of coverage and you choose to replace the item, we’ll pay up to 150 percent of the amount itemized on your policy to account for increases in market value.
Protect an entire art collection with blanket coverage, itemize your fine art pieces individually, or do both. It’s up to you.
Why should I insure my art?
Whether you own one piece of fine art, a number of outdoor sculptures, or a whole collection of artwork, insurance for your collection can provide you with peace of mind, knowing that you’ll be able to repair or replace it after a covered event.
With Chubb art insurance, you’re automatically covered for new purchases worldwide, whether they’re at your home, a gallery, or in storage, and you’ll have access to qualified experts who can share tips on how to protect your art from harm or refer you to the art specialists you need.
