Underwater Weaving
Handmade Throw Basket
Description
The essential catch-all, reimagined with artistry and soul in three sizes. The Throw Basket is our answer to beautiful, practical organization for the modern home.
This piece is defined by its versatile shape: a square bottom for stability that gently curves into a generous, round top. Handwoven by us from natural rattan, the beautiful variations in the fibers ensure that your basket is a one-of-a-kind work of functional art. Extended, wrapped handles complete the design, offering both comfort and durability.

ABOUT UNDERWATER WEAVING STUDIO
Underwater Weaving is a basket atelier, creative weaving studio, and community. They make hand-woven, one-of-a-kind contemporary baskets for the trade, retail, and private commission. Through group weaving gatherings, they endeavor to revive the craft of basketry, encourage creative freedom, and offer access to meditation by connecting the hands, heart, and mind with natural materials.
Founder Erin Pollard observed the craft of basketry as a child, watching her mother weave and teach workshops in Maine. After almost two decades working in fashion in New York, and long after her mother retired, Erin began weaving her own path. Through sharing her woven art, it became clear that many others were seeking an antidote to modern day ennui; a way to reclaim their hands. Soon, Erin and her mother began designing and creating together and Underwater Weaving Studio was born.
