EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1914, showcases the impressive exterior of Waring and Gillow's furniture shop located on Oxford Street in London. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a sense of the grandeur and elegance that once defined this esteemed establishment. Waring and Gillow, a renowned name in the world of furniture, had been serving their discerning clientele from this very location for several decades. The shop's fine façade, adorned with intricate architectural details, reflects the company's commitment to quality and craftsmanship. The large display windows, filled with exquisite pieces of furniture, invite passersby to step inside and explore the treasures that awaited them. Oxford Street, a bustling thoroughfare in the heart of London, was the perfect location for Waring and Gillow's flagship store. The area was known for its prestigious shops and attractions, making it a popular destination for both locals and tourists. The shop's proximity to Regent Street and Bond Street, two of London's most famous shopping districts, further enhanced its appeal. The photograph captures the shop's exterior during a period of great change in London and the world at large. The Edwardian era was drawing to a close, and the city was on the cusp of embracing modernity. Despite the impending changes, Waring and Gillow's commitment to traditional craftsmanship and timeless design remained steadfast. This photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of Waring and Gillow's furniture and the shop's rich history on Oxford Street. It invites us to imagine the stories that unfolded within its walls and the countless pieces that graced its showrooms over the years.
