About Us

Our shop in Cirencester opened in 2001, with the aim of selling lovely things for those special occasions and special people in our lives. Over the past five years, the business has grown and we have found more and more irresistable stock, some of which we are delighted to offer you here.

On our website you will find a selection of the items we sell in our shop, focusing on some of the special people and special occasions which deserve a gift. Of course you may like to treat yourself too! We stock well known brands such as Spaceform and Bombay Duck alongside interesting and unusual gifts from smaller designers to give a fascinating selection of items to dip into. The items on offer will change to reflect the seasons, and we will be adding new and exciting things as we discover them.

If you would like to visit our shop, the opening hours are 10am – 5pm Monday to Saturday. We can be found in Swan Yard, one of Cirencester's pretty courtyards within sight and sound of the Parish Church.

In case you are wondering about our name, Cygnus is the latin word for swan, and was chosen to reflect our location in Swan Yard and Cirencester's Roman heritage.
