Michelsen
Anton Michelsen opened his workshop in Gothersgade in Copenhagen in 1841
and by 1848 had become jeweler for the Danish College of Arms. After
rapidly expanding and moving to a new location, he was the only Danish
silversmith to show in the 1855 World Exhibition in Paris. In 1877,
following his death, his son, Carl Michelsen took over the firm and also
took the position of court jeweler in 1880. In 1892 for the wedding of
Christian IX and Queen Louise a five piece centerpiece including two 8
arm candelabras was crafted, showing the myth of King Skjold brought to
the land of the Danes as an infant.
