Acquisition brings together trusted marketplaces for auction and fixed-price formats – enhancing how people discover, shop, and sell vintage furnishings, art, and one-of-a-kind design pieces.
LONDON, Aug. 4, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Auction Technology Group plc (“ATG”), operator of a portfolio of trusted marketplaces that help people discover and buy unique, design-forward, and collectible pieces, today announced the acquisition of Chairish Inc., the San Francisco-based parent company of Chairish and Pamono, for $85 million USD.
The acquisition strengthens ATG’s leadership in the global Art & Antiques market by bringing together two highly complementary businesses. Chairish operates two of the most recognized online destinations for vintage and collectible home furnishings: Chairish.com in the U.S. and Pamono.com in Europe, connecting over 12,000 sellers with a community of sophisticated design buyers, driving over 1.3 million curated listings and 4.6 million monthly visits.
By bringing together Chairish’s fixed-price, design-focused model with ATG’s auction marketplaces, the combined group will offer an expanded, multi-brand platform that serves a broader range of buyer preferences and seller needs across categories, price points, and regions. Sellers will benefit from seamless access to multiple sales channels and global audiences, while buyers will enjoy a significantly expanded selection of rare and remarkable items, available through both fixed-price and auction formats.
“This is a milestone step in our mission to transform how people connect with unique finds,” said John-Paul Savant, CEO of ATG. “Chairish complements our marketplace portfolio with beautifully curated inventory, deep seller relationships, and a loyal design-savvy audience. Together, we are creating a multi-brand platform that brings greater choice and possibility to buyers and sellers alike.”
“Joining forces with ATG marks an exciting new chapter,” said Gregg Brockway, CEO of Chairish, Inc. “This partnership is about amplifying what makes Chairish special – wide and premium selection, sharp-eyed curation, and a passion for sustainability – while opening up entirely new ways for our community to connect, shop, and sell. Our sellers can gain access to new channels and our buyers will discover more extraordinary finds from around the world.”
