Antiquarian A. C. Beeling & Zn was founded in 1886 by A. C. Beeling, son of Johannes Beeling, a master silversmith who had been trading in silver ever since 1864 (Leeuwarder Courant, 03-09-1973). The current A. C. Beeling is the grandson of the founder of the company. His father expanded the business, which at first mostly dealt with clocks and watches, with silver, furniture, china and more (De Telegraaf, 08-10-1993). A. C. Beeling & Zn received its Royal Warrent of Appointment in 1939 (Leeuwarder Nieuwsblad, 04-08-1939). (source: rkd.nl)
