Hi,

Selfridges registered as a public company in 1908 and opened their jewellery department in 1909. I believe it was also in 1909 that they registered with the London and Chester assay offices.

The clue here will be the '& Co.' mark, at some point they likely changed to '& Co. Ltd.', but at what date that might have occured I do not know.

Trev.

This google books item probably doesn't answer the specific question being asked, but it seemed like some interesting information about the company:
