Comment

S&Co - Sporrong & Co mint mark. The business was originally founded as a belt-maker’s in Stockholm back in 1666 by Henrik Grau, Master Craftsman. Following several changes of name and ownership, the business was taken over in 1842 by Carl Claes Sporrong, the last Master of the Belt-Makers’ Guild in Stockholm.
