Noguchi 1a

1stDibs is a leading online marketplace for extraordinary design. Since 2000, we have captured the magic of the Paris flea market, connecting those seeking the most beautiful things on earth with highly coveted sellers and makers in furniture and home decor, art, fine jewelry and fashion.

Sellers set their own prices on 1stDibs, and most of the items on the platform are negotiable, as antique items typically are. Other items are quite well priced and offer tremendous value. (The “Pricing Guidance” module on a given item’s description page indicates how its price compares to that of similar pieces sold on 1stDibs.) 

If a seller is open to negotiating the price of a given piece of merchandise, we encourage you to negotiate to get the best price you can. Customers can rest assured that the items they find on 1stDibs meet the highest marketplace standards. The 1stDibs Promise includes comprehensive Buyer Protection, a Price-Match Guarantee and trusted global delivery. 

Unlike other sites, 1stDibs admits only sellers who are respected professionals in their fields, and we do not allow consumer-to-consumer listings. To protect the integrity and accuracy of our offerings, 1stDibs thoroughly vets all sellers to ensure the quality of their listings and their service. 

The 1stDibs app was designed to facilitate an easy shopping experience and on-the-go discovery on 1stDibs.

Lots of things have happened to 1stDibs! We are a leading online marketplace for extraordinary design. Since 2000, we have captured the magic of the Paris flea market, connecting those seeking the most beautiful things on earth with highly coveted sellers and makers in furniture and home decor, art, fine jewelry and fashion.

The first couple of decades in the history of our global e-commerce platform have been busy. In 2003, 1stDibs moved to New York City and added dealers from the New York metropolitan area. We launched Introspective, the official magazine of 1stDibs dedicated to uncovering and illuminating the stories behind designs as well as their creators.

In the ensuing years, 1stDibs added verticals for art, fine jewelry and fashion and launched dealers in the United Kingdom, Europe, Scandinavia and elsewhere. In 2016, we transitioned from our position as a listings site to an e-commerce model, and five years later, 1stDibs went public. The company’s common stock has been approved for listing and is traded on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “DIBS.” 

With the arrival of Auctions in 2021, 1stDibs now enables guests to place bids on their favorite items — spanning furniture, home decor, art, fine jewelry, watches, handbags and fashion — offering the thrill associated with a treasure hunt and winning a beloved item at an exceptional price. 

Today our best-in-class platform allows shoppers to buy directly, negotiate a price or bid on items at auction and enables them to interact with sellers throughout all stages of the transaction, including item inquiries, price negotiations and customization requests. 1stDibs works with a range of trusted prestigious sellers around the world, who are respected professionals in their fields, and the company is committed to shoppers’ satisfaction and peace of mind with every single purchase.

1stDibs' core purpose, to enrich lives with the extraordinary by connecting design lovers across the globe, can only be achieved when we ensure our behavior aligns with our core values: 

We continually evolve

We succeed together

We deliver results

We do what’s right

In addition, we believe that we can meet our goals only when diversity, equity, inclusivity and a sense of belonging underpin our employee experience. We seek to empower those who have been historically underrepresented. We are committed to attracting and retaining the best talent, and to fostering an environment where all can contribute meaningfully. Our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) help drive positive impacts and ensure that every individual feels that they belong.
