This is a Ken Edwards "El Palomar" Blue Floral Pottery Platter.
The mark on the bottom identifies it as part of the "El Palomar" studio, which was established by American ceramicist Ken Edwards in Tonalá, Mexico, in the 1960s. The stylized mark on the front (resembling a cross or bird) is a "chop mark" used to identify the specific artisan who painted the piece. Key features follow:
1) Hand-painted "El Palomar Blue" floral motif with white and yellow accents.
2) Slightly recessed, footed base (three-footed or rim-footed).
3) Earthy, matte-to-semi-gloss stoneware texture characteristic of Tonalá studio pottery.
4) Signed with the "El Palomar" backstamp and artist chop mark on the front.
