Etsy seller

Online artisan merchant

An Etsy seller is someone who operates a shop on Etsy, an online marketplace specializing in handmade goods, vintage items, and craft supplies.

The term often implies a small-scale artisan or hobbyist entrepreneur rather than a large retailer: She quit her job to become a full-time Etsy seller.

The platform has made Etsy seller nearly synonymous with independent craftsperson in the digital age.
