Artwork Verification – Linking the Digital to the Physical

At A1 Security Print we have a history that dates from 1933 providing secure documents and verification solutions for clients worldwide. As a trusted strategic partner to organisations across varied market sectors we use our extensive expertise to determine the most appropriate combination of security features to protect the brand and reputation by preventing forgery, tampering and counterfeiting.

Security solutions should protect, authenticate and validate which requires layers of security features to perform these functions utilising a range of physical and digital verification techniques. 

Who are Verisart? 

Verisart is a blockchain award-winning certification service enabling creators and collectors to create COAs (Certificates of Authenticity) securely registered on the blockchain. Founded in 2015 as the first company to apply blockchain to certification in the art and collectibles market, Verisart has pioneered a new patent-pending global standard for certification. Over 100,000 artworks have been certified on the platform by more than 25,000 artists including Obey Giant artist Shepard Fairey, Trevor Jones, Pindar Van Arman, Penny Slinger and Derek Boshier.

Creating bespoke, secure QR Stickers for authenticity 

We worked with Verisart to develop a physical paper-based Certificate of Authenticity and Secure QR Stickers which provide a complete connection from creation to digital COA. 

The Secure QR Stickers are designed to be placed on physical creations and linked to the digital COA. They can be used to help establish authenticity and gain access to additional content by scanning a QR code with your smartphone.

The Secure QR Stickers we produced were tailor-made to suit Verisarts needs, including: 

  • Highly visible holographic background 
  • Tamper-proof and easily damaged if an attempt is made to remove or alter them
  • Visible serial number assigned to a specific Verisart account and certificate
  • Verisart encryption embedded in the QR Code

Together the combination of blockchain, physical and digital verification provides creators, artists and collectors alike with full trust in the provenance and authenticity of artwork. 

The result

Robert Norton CEO and Founder of Verisart commented “It’s been a great experience working with A1 Security Print who have been really versatile and innovative in their approach. The key for Verisart was to be able to link the physical to the digital, which has been a great success and adopted by many leading creators.”
