Rudi Stahl. (Thanks to Style-Invasion for the correct spelling).

Sorry, I know nothing about this piece. I expect it's German and that it's studio pottery.

I believe that this is the platter from a lazy susan though the rotating mechanism was long gone by the time I got my hands on it.

It's huge measuring 14-1/2" across and 1-1/8" high
