As a passionate collector myself, I can’t help but feel a deep connection with Catawiki. Their story resonates with me, as they too were driven by the pursuit of rare and unique items that fuel our passions. I remember spending countless hours scouring the internet for that elusive piece to add to my collection, often coming up empty-handed.
To ensure that everyone can enjoy the craft of amassing unique items, Catawiki is breaking down barriers and delivering the industry directly to your doorstep.
In 2008, Catawiki was born by two enthusiastic Dutch collectors-turned-businessmen who found a lack of resources for finding rare comics online to expand their collection. Their appreciation for these items inspired them to create a space where similar people could unite, express their shared interests, and exchange unique treasures. This platform aims to provide an opportunity for everyone to nurture their passions.
Since its inception, our website has experienced rapid growth and in 2011, introduced its primary auction feature. Fast-forwarding to 2024, this site has become one of the top destinations for unique items, with approximately 75,000 items up for auction each week. As Catawiki CEO Ravi Vora explained to TopMob, “Our platform has grown exponentially, turning the former offline world of collectibles into a global, accessible marketplace. Catawiki is spearheading a cultural change. We are revolutionizing how people engage with their interests, making it simpler than ever before to find and acquire extraordinary treasures.
As a passionate gamer, I can vouch for Catawiki’s commitment to offering truly exceptional items. With over 200 in-house experts, they uphold an unmatched quality control that sets them apart. Each object goes through a rigorous, meticulous review process, which means about 700,000 items are declined annually. This stringent selection ensures that only the best finds make it to their market.
The expert’s extensive network and knowledge encompasses a wide variety of items, from Sylvester Stallone’s iconic Ford Mustang to a first edition of Amazing Fantasy #15 featuring Spider-Man, a unique Tiffany Studios Oriental Poppy lamp, a Picasso drawing, Napoleon’s preferred wine, and many more. This expertise stretches across numerous domains such as art, design, jewelry, fashion, classic cars, watches, and wine, just to name a few.
This year, the online auction house has partnered with Hypemind, TopMob’s cultural division, to conduct a comprehensive study on the most significant, impactful, and sought-after items of the 21st century available for purchase, along with outlining the prevailing consumer tendencies shaping the market.
Keep an eye out for further details regarding the Catawiki x Hypemind reports within the upcoming weeks. For those looking to discover, purchase, or explore your next treasured item, don’t forget to check out the Catawiki online platform.
