Large handmade studio pottery platter by Pamela Black of Paradise Pottery, Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Oval platter, 17" x 10", deep cobalt blue glaze with a cream sgraffito design: four geckos arranged in a cross with sun and crescent moon motifs and radiating lines. Signed "Black" on the base (her pieces are also found with the full Paradise Pottery stamp). Mid-century American studio pottery — a striking serving or display piece. Underside shows light scuffs and storage marks, and there is one tiny glaze pock on the front surface, shown in the close-up photos — normal for handmade studio pottery.
