About the Maker

Founded by designer Erin Pollard and based between New York and Maine, Underwater Weaving Studio creates handwoven basketware that balances sculptural form with everyday utility. Each piece is made by hand in Maine using traditional weaving techniques and natural materials, embracing the irregular textures and subtle variations that come from true craftsmanship. Pollard’s work draws from historic basketry traditions while giving them a distinctly contemporary sensibility — tactile, functional, and expressive.
