The historic department store Marshall Field & Company, also known as Marshall Field's, was located in Chicago, Illinois. The beginning of Marshall Field's can be traced to a dry goods store that Potter Palmer established in 1852. Marshall Field joined Palmer in partnership after moving to Chicago in 1856 and working for a number of Palmer's rivals. Field purchased Leiter's shares and changed the company's name to Marshall Field & Co. Field built a wholesale store on Franklin Street to house his ongoing expansion, selling bulk supplies to small businesses across the central and western United States. In 1901, Marshall Field & Company was founded. In 1902, a twelve-story building on State Street debuted, and in 1906, a second brand-new structure on Wabash Avenue did the same. 1904 saw the opening of Marshall Field's fully outfitted Marshall Field & Co. Craft Shop and Metal Foundry. They produced items that were both handcrafted and manufactured by machines in an effort to profit from the arts and crafts movement. The store remained open and produced Arts & Crafts flatware, hollowware porringers, bracelets, hatpins, brooches, candy dishes, and other jewelry until 1950. The spoon shows the makers mark on the back of the top piece reading, "Marshall, Field & Co. Sterling 7042". The spoon shows no other marks.
