About

OnlineGalleries. com provides a platform for purchasing high-quality antiques, featuring a wide variety of unique furniture, decorative objects, and art pieces aimed at discerning collectors and interior designers. OnlineGalleries. com is an online platform specializing in the sale of antiques, founded to cater to a growing market of antique enthusiasts.


The company underwent a significant transition in September 2012 when it was acquired by 1stdibs, a portfolio of Benchmark Capital. The company's headquarters are located in the UK, where it continues to operate as a prominent player in the antique marketplace. OnlineGalleries. com offers a diverse range of high-quality antique products, including unique furniture, decorative objects, lighting, and garden elements.


Their main categories of offerings span historical periods from the 16th to the 19th centuries, catering to both individual consumers and interior designers. The company's products are primarily available in North America, Europe, and select markets in Asia, appealing to affluent customers seeking unique and investment-worthy antiques. In the most recent fiscal year of 2013, OnlineGalleries. com reported a revenue of USD 372,598, with an EBITDA of USD -70,258.


The company's revenue generation primarily comes from direct-to-consumer sales through its online platform, where customers can explore a comprehensive catalog and make purchases directly, reflecting the company's position in the high-end antique market. Looking ahead, OnlineGalleries. com aims to expand its product offerings by designing new collections that reflect contemporary trends in antique design, with anticipated launch dates in the upcoming quarters. The company is also planning to penetrate new geographic markets, particularly in Asia and the Middle East, by 2015, capitalizing on the increasing demand for unique antique pieces in these regions.


The funding received from the acquisition in September 2012 will be utilized to support these expansions and product developments, ensuring the company remains competitive in the evolving antique market.
