Here's one like it that sold on eBay. Says it is "Deforest Pottery"

HERE'S A BEAUTIFUL VINTAGE CERAMIC CANDY OR NUT DISH FROM DEFOREST POTTERY. THE DISH HAS THREE DIVIDED SECTIONS AND ALSO A HANDLE. IT MEASURES 11-1/4" LONG X 11" WIDE BY 2" HIGH (NOT INCLUDING THE HANDLE.) THE HANDLE MEASURES 2-5/8" HIGH. THE BOTTOM OF THE DISH IS MARKED "DEFOREST, CALIF, USA, FL35."
