Our take
1stDibs is an eCommerce platform that caters to luxury, high-end, and antique goods, bringing together dealers, makers, and buyers in one online space. By focusing on rare and collectible items, 1stDibs has carved out a niche that sets it apart. With this approach, the platform aims to bridge the traditional barriers of geography and time that typically hinder the luxury goods and collectors market.
Founded in 2001, 1stDibs has cultivated a highly curated environment for its customers. While the platform only has tens of thousands of active users, these users are highly engaged and willing to invest significantly in quality items. In 2020, for example, the average 1stDibs user spent over $%,500, with each order averaging more than $2,500 - proving the site's appeal to serious buyers and collectors looking for rare treasures.
With this success, the company is expanding beyond its online roots, with exciting ventures into offline experiences. A major milestone in this shift is the partnership with The Agency, marking the beginning of a broader strategy to combine digital and physical touchpoints. As the company continues to grow, it will be interesting to see how it bridges its online success with the offline experience.
