Williams-Sonoma, Inc.
A home-furnishings and kitchenware retailer that runs a family of well-known brands, including Williams Sonoma, Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids, West Elm, and Rejuvenation. It all began when founder Chuck Williams, inspired by French cookware on a 1953 trip to Paris, bought a hardware store in Sonoma, California, and turned it into the first Williams-Sonoma shop in 1956. The company name comes from that original town, and its stores now reach customers in dozens of countries.

Select a row to see that insider’s individual transactions. Sum of the holdings confirmed in the 12 months before this insider's last filing. A Form 4 reports a holding per line — held directly, or through a named trust, partnership or foundation, and in each share class separately — never a person’s total. Lines not restated in that time are left out and shown apart: an active filer restates what they still hold, so a line they did not restate is more often an entity since renamed, whose shares a successor line reports too. An amber marker means some were left out.
Net open-market activity over all recorded history: -10.48M shares. Grants, option exercises and tax withholding are excluded — they are compensation mechanics, not decisions to buy or sell.
