About Amati
Amati is an online auction house specialising in the sale of stringed musical instruments: violins, violas, cellos, and bows. We hold at least ten auctions a year. These comprise Specialist Auctions, auctions of Single Owner collections, and Amati Affordable Auctions. We also provide free market valuations of stringed instruments online and in person at valuation days. Having your violin valued by Amati is a great way to find out who made your violin and how much it is worth in the market today.
