Holland & Holland was founded in London in 1835 by Harris Holland, who ran a tobacco wholesale business before turning to gunmaking; he took on his nephew Henry as an apprentice in 1861, made him a partner in 1867, and the business adopted the Holland & Holland name in 1876. It won every rifle category at The Field magazine's 1883 trials, setting a new standard among London's gunmakers, and the company holds two royal warrants. Alongside its handmade rifles and shotguns, Holland & Holland also produces luxury clothing and accessories, and it is now owned by Beretta Holding.
