Potter and Mellen, Inc., Cleveland Ohio

In 1899, Horace Potter opened The Potter Shop to showcase his decorative metal work and jewelry. His excellence was in incorporating decorative design elements and historic ornament into handwrought silver and brass objects, and into fine jewelry. His inspiration came the Arts and Crafts movement that he and Louis Tiffany were instrumental in introducing to America . The Arts and Crafts Movement valued the handmade object over those made in factories. Potter’s jewelry exhibited his jewelry and hollowware in the Studio and in many major art museums.
