Stradivari Invest®
Stradivari Invest® is specialized in the fine rare stringed instruments investment niche. We facilitate investments in the top stringed instruments made mainly by the unsurpassed luthiers of all times, Antonio Stradivari and Giuseppe Guarneri del Gesù.
Our success depends on the profit and the satisfaction of our clients. Our goal is therefore to offer the finest instruments available that secure excellent financial returns, the most satisfying non-financial returns and extraordinary safety.
An important part of our work at the Stradivari Invest® is to support some of the most accomplished young musicians who need a great instrument to reach the highest potentials of their careers. The finest stringed instruments are so expensive today that practically none of the younger virtuosi can afford them without a support from a sponsor or a patron.
Both our investment and our support work marry beautifully in a well-balanced symbiosis. It is a win-win situation for all involved. Both the investor and the musician gain greatly from the partnership. The value of the instrument is preserved and further enhanced when a well-known soloist plays the instrument. And the musician’s career gets a significant boost when he or she gets an opportunity to play a Stradivari or a Guarneri instrument.
Heart and soul of Stradivari Invest®
The founder of Stradivari Invest®, Staffan Borseman, is equally at home in the world of art and business.
Competitive advantage of Stradivari Invest®
Our highly specialized knowledge and unique network in the field ensures our clients exceptional instruments securing optimal financial returns that beat e.g. Dow Jones Industrial Average and the 10 and 30 year Treasury Bonds.
In this highly specialized niche investment there is a very little competition. Globally there are only a handful of real experts able to valuate, verify and certify with certainty the finest old instruments made by Stradivari and Guarneri. We are in frequent and close contact with these experts.
Our global network of musicians, collectors, dealers, violinmakers and other professionals and institutions allows us to locate the finest instruments off market and to obtain the optimal return when the investment is realised.

His ever-growing interest and investigative mind brought him together with top international experts in every field touching stringed instruments.
Staffan Borseman grew up in one of the most famous Swedish music families. His father, Enar Borseman - a student of Georg Kulenkampf, later violin concertmaster and music professor, led Staffan in the best of traditions, providing him with a solid basis and continuing support. Already as a five-year-old, Staffan made his first concert performance on violin at the Stockholm Music Museum. Later he studied violin under Gert Crafoord, Josef Grünfarb, Tibor Varga and Jasha Brodsky.
During his international violinist career Staffan Borseman has held, among other positions, that of a soloist, chamber musician and orchestra leader in the Malmö Symphony Orchestra, Danish Radio Sinfonietta and the Royal Swedish Chamber Orchestra.
Staffan Borseman is respected not only for his musical skills, abilities and knowledge. His integrity, wisdom and ethical reliability make him treasured and loved by his business partners, colleagues and students around the world.
Recently was Staffan Borseman named the ambassador of the prestigeous Stradivari Society.
He has a lifelong experience as a dealer of fine stringed instruments and bows. For his outstanding knowledge and his human qualities he is a deeply respected and sought after rare stringed instrument investment consultant.
A close working relation to the late Mr. Erik Järnaker brought him into the circles of one of the major stringed instrument collections, the Järnaker Foundation.
