Company mission
To become the platform where collectors can enjoy ownership of rare, iconic and culturally significant items.
Our take
Having the funds to own collectables of value, say an Andy Warhol or the British Guiana One Cent Magenta, is no mean feat, and is beyond the scope of most individuals. Showpiece is a fractional ownership platform; democratising ownership by making the collecting of valuable and famous items available to everyone, not just the wealthy.
Showpiece is only in its early stages but is already demonstrating momentum, recently completing its first ‘Marketplace’ transaction - for an Edward VII penny - whilst adding Andy Warhol’s ‘Reigning Queens’ to its collection of available assets. New features have continually been introduced during its short life span, including the aforementioned 'marketplace' where collectors can buy and sell their pieces amongst each other.
As it grows, further items will be made available - the hunt for rate collectible assets is currently underway. Showpiece is positioning itself to become a market leader in what is one of the world’s longest standing hobbies. With the adoption of digital collectibles growing, along with its impressive items on offer, Showpiece could become a major force in a largely untapped global market.
