Name suggestions for gift sign? (pottery maker)

My daughter and I were recently given some really nice gifts from a local potter. Is that the term?
He does not have a business, he is a teacher and making clay items on the wheel has been his hobby for over 40 years. He makes three-handled drinking mugs, moustache cups, piggy banks, and these cool pots with stars cut in them so a candle's light shines out in a pattern. I would like to make him a little painted sign in return.
The only name I can think of is Dahlberg's Dirt, and that sounds really cheesy.
His name is Bob, and he signs his pieces with the initials RAD. I don't know him very well.
Any suggestions?
:thankyou:
Love....Jill
PS
Sorry if this is a stupid topic but I am creatively bankrupt today.

HAND THROWN .........POTTERY
BY RAD.
me thinks you need to make the point of HAND THROWN, so people dont confuse his place with a MOLD POURING POTTERY, sometimes called ceramics........
and you really got to do the lettering in a totally freehand loose style, adds to the "hand thrown" hand made look.
