Michelsen took courses at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and worked in Berlin in the 1830s. In 1841 Anton Michelsen opened his workshop in Gothersgade in Copenhagen and in 1848 was officially appointed to the Royal Danish Court as "Court Goldsmith and Maker of Orders". Anton Michelsen died in 1877 and his son Carl Michelsen took over the firm. Carl became a court jeweler in 1880 obtaining important commissions from Danish Court.
