Dishes and such

Found on the Belle Grove grounds, even the shards tell a story of fine dining and service for guests. Two “Ott” bottles were sold by L. H. Ott, a local druggist who bottled medicines such as cough syrup. Note the porcelain marked “Cockson & Seddon” from Cobridge, England. This particular mark dates the piece to between 1875 and 1877.
