Large black clay pot with lizard or frog, Mexican pottery signed by the artist (Jose Quezada?). This is mid to late 20th century vintage, I believe.

But I'm far from an expert on Indian pots, so please feel free to email me if you need more photos or have questions. It's out of an estate here in Wisconsin, and I have no paperwork or documentation with this.

It measures about 7 1/4" overall diameter, 4 3/4" tall. I couldn't find any chips or cracks, and chips or cracks IS something I know a lot about!
