1stdibs opens 44,000-square-foot, open-to-the-public gallery

This summer, 1stdibs made a big announcement: The company that first took the antiques market online would be opening a massive (and decidedly offline) space on the far west side of Manhattan. The 44,000-square-foot gallery in the Terminal Stores, which opens its doors in February for trade customers and consumers alike, will house 50 booths and signals a serious commitment to physical retail.

“We have quite a bit of data on the performance of our sellers, and we took all that into account,” says Cristina Miller, 1stdibs’s chief commercial officer, of the dealers coming into the space. (The company already has deep experience selling to the trade from the showroom floor, and just wrapped its eight-year partnership with the New York Design Center this fall.) “We were also very focused on feedback from our trade community.”
