From a humble beginning in 1900 when Frank
Silcox set up in business as a Furniture Remover, Cabinet Maker
and Undertaker, we have grown in size and stature, now consisting
of 14 rooms on 7 levels in Kingsmead Square, with our second store
now open in Cirencester.
Variously referred to as an "Aladdin's Cave"
or a "Tardis", around every corner can be found furnishing gems
for every room in the house. Still a family concern, current owner
Steve Wicks is the great-grandson of Frank Silcox and has inherited
his critical eye for fashion and passion for quality.
Nowadays we source our furniture from throught
the world, whilst still retaining contacts with local manufacturers
in Somerset, Gloucestershire and Wiltshire. The result is an exciting,
eclectic collection to suit a broad range of tastes.
In 2007 we opened our second store, having
purchased Baldwin's Bed Shop in Cirencester which has been rebranded
as Silcox & Wicks. Core products will be available in both stores,
however they will each retain a distinctive identity with the Cirencester
shop retaining it's specialisation in quality beds while the Bath
store has more of a fashion edge.
