By the mid 18th century the firm was the leading cabinet shop in Lancaster, they had a reputation for making high quality mahogany furniture. In the early 1740's Robert Gillow imported mahogany from the West Indies. The success of the firm was partly due to his ability to import fine quality mahogany. In 1757 Robert entered into a partnership with his son Richard (1713-1811). Robert retired in 1768 and gave his share to his son Robert Gillow II (1747-1795). In 1769 - 1770 a shop at 176 Oxford Street was set up by the brother's cousin Thomas Gillow (1736-1779) to sell their fine furniture. By 1775 the Lancaster branch had 42 employees and by 1789 approximately 50. In 1814 the firm was taken over by a partnership of Leonard Redmayne, Whiteside and Ferguson, they continued to use the Gillow name until 1903 when they were taken over by Waring and Gillows.

- CHINESE EXPORT ARMORIAL PORCELAIN CHARGER,
CHINESE EXPORT ARMORIAL PORCELAIN CHARGER, KINGcirca 1726, central arms for lady of the family King, Baron of Ockham, arms displayed within a central diamond, top with three axes, lower half with three bloodied spear heads, borders and rim with foliate decoration in gilt and iron red, having trees and vases in the Imari taste, gilt highlights throughout, reverse with four painted floral sprays, 13-5/8 in.
Note: "Peter King, was created Baron King of Ockham in 1725, and was Lord Chancellor 1725-33, at which time he also received this grant of arms, had married in 1704 Anne, daughter of Richard Seys of Boverton in Glamorgan and had four sons and two daughters--Elizabeth and Anne--neither of whom married. He died in 1734, but his widow survived him for thirty-three years and died in July 1767.
These are the arms of an unmarried daughter and correctly should be for either Elizabeth or Anne King. A service was made for Lord King at the same time, and both services are now known to have been part of a Private Trade cargo on the quayside at Canton on the 20th December 1727, awaiting being loaded onto the ship Prince Augustus . A very rare mention in the Canton Journal (held in the East India Archives at the British Library) for that day describes “5 Chests of China Ware with the Arms of the Lord King’s and some other Gentlemen”.
