Some experts, just by looking, would be able to tell which Pueblo this little turtle was produced at. Can anyone give me any ideas?

I'm trying to identify where this cute little guy was created. Anybody have any ideas?
It's a style of blackware done by several potters at San Ildefonso Pueblo, New Mexico, but unusual in that it doesn't have a signature. Is it possible that it could be the lid to a bowl, and the signature was on the bowl part? It's a style that was developed fairly recently, long after San Ildefonso potters recognized the value of signing their work, so one would expect it to be signed.
Thank you for your expertise. I knew someone would know.
