The silversmithing firm of Daniel and John Wellby was founded in London in 1827 by Joseph Clement and John Wellby. The partnership lasted until August 6, 1828, when it was dissolved by mutual consent. The activity was continued at the same address by John Wellby, who entered his first mark at Goldsmiths' Hall in 1834.

In 1863, Daniel Wellby and John Henry Wellby (John Wellby's son) entered a new mark at Goldsmiths' Hall. The firm continued to operate under this partnership until 1896/1897, when it was converted into a limited liability company under the name D & J Wellby Ltd. The directors of the new company were Daniel Wellby, John Henry Wellby, Edward Henry Wellby and Howard Wellby.

Notable pieces produced by D & J Wellby include a tea service made for the Duke of Wellington in 1835; a dessert service made for the Duke of Devonshire in more...
