Welcome to Shipyard Weaving

THE Colorful Nantucket

A Woven Tale of Sea Story & Connection, Expression and Originality.

Thank you for visiting my shop! I am a Duxbury based Artist, who continually finds inspiration living in my small sea side, old shipbuilding, oyster loving town in New England.

My slow-made Fine Jewelry, Handbags, Baskets and Vases are all hand woven in the Nantucket Lightship Basket Style. A nod to the 19th century basket weavers on the island of Nantucket. 

Shipyard Weaving is THE Colorful Nantucket.

I am expressively marrying the traditional sandy colored reed with hand dyed colored reed and enhancing the patterns by utilizing hand created and locally sourced and boldly colored materials. 

Each item is bursting with color and pattern, combining tradition and a pinch of boho, I am a little hippy, a little conservative and always expressive and daring! My Jewelry will give your outfit an originality, a uniquely colorful flair, while having a story of olde New England at it's heart. My bracelets will stike up a conversation.

Each piece is woven with a Nautical history in mind, stemming from Mariners, Whalers, Travelers of an Olde Era. Bringing you their stories and their dreams of adventure and excitement. Heading off to a new place yet, bringing back your own Story. 

Pick your one of a kind ART piece, that speaks to you and your journey. 

All of my creations are created in Duxbury MA, a New England seaside town with a history of shipbuilding.  

My creations are Hand woven and inspired by the traditional Nantucket Lightship Baskets from the mid 19th century.

Artisan Made findings, wood accessories and hand dyed reed.

Unique & Colorful Shipyard Weaving is The Colorful Nantucket. 

Hand dyed and hand formed end-caps, each pair unique and one-of-a-kind

Resembling the ocean waves, sandy dunes, sea glass or an oyster shell, each pair are distinctly coastal.

Each color combination is made with intention and care, slow made hand made in New England.
