The company was founded in 1857 by Nilius Martinius Thune (1831-90) who took over the business of goldsmith FJ Brinck in Kristiania. During the first half of the 20th century, NM Thune was one of the dominant goldsmith companies of the country. In 1982, NM Thune was sold out by the family and bought by Olav Thon and later by Erling Bjerke.
