Horace Potter (1873-1848) opened the Potter Shop in Cleveland in 1899 to sell his decorative metalwork and jewelry. It later became the Potter Studio, then Potter Bentley Studios in 1928, and Potter and Mellen, Inc., in 1933. The company made and sold jewelry, silver, and brass hollow ware and also sold china, giftwares, and enameled bowls, trays, and boxes by many artists.
