There’s a certain ease that comes with having these rattan baskets around the home—sturdy, functional, and always there when we need them. Inspired by Shaker 'cathead' baskets, named after the bottom corners that resemble cat ears, each piece is densely woven for durability yet feels incredibly lightweight. Plus, rattan's natural antimicrobial properties make it an excellent choice for food-related uses.

Underwater Weaving Studio
Erin and Peggy Pollard

Heavily influenced by the weaving techniques of New England Shaker communities and the indigenous Wabanaki, Underwater Weaving Studio is a basket atelier rooted in rediscovering the traditional craft of basket making. Baskets have always been coveted for their simple forms and durable construction, and while the Shakers made it their mission to honor proper use, seek tight form, and eliminate the unnecessary, Erin and Peggy Pollard (the mother-daughter team behind Underwater Weaving) have created a philosophy of incorporating modern design sensibilities without succumbing to excess. Splitting time between their homes in New York and Maine, Erin and Peggy carry on the tradition of practical simplicity embodied in the Shaker style.
