A Copenhagen-based merchant house that at least operated in the 1750s ? (VMM)

Any relation to hofapoteker Gottfried Becker (1767-1845)? (BioLek II) (VMM). There is a file at the Royal Library with detailed plans etc. of The Royal Apothecarian "Beckers gård" in Købmagergade, where, amongst other things, there are details of "laboratories" (Ny Kgl Samling, no. 386, "Den Beckerske Gaard paa Store Kiøbmagergade i Kiøbenhavn"). Allegedly Gottfried Becker also established a "farvefabrik" i.e. dye factory in 1807 (BioLek II).
