About
Timeless Tradition in Every Piece
Nantucket basket jewelry from Flossie & Gray is rooted in the heritage of traditional basket weaving on Nantucket island. The first lightship baskets were made in the 1800’s by sailors who maintained the lightships that protected ships from the shallow shoals surrounding the island.
From One Generation to the Next
This traditional style of hand-weaving has been passed down through generations. Jenn grew up weaving Nantucket baskets with her aunt every summer on Cape Cod, and now enjoys the same tradition with her own children. When you purchase and wear these Nantucket bracelets you are supporting this time honored tradition and art. Our heirloom pieces are meant to be passed down for generations to come as a reminder of the love and patience that went into weaving each one.
Perfectly Imperfect
Each piece of jewelry from Flossie and Gray carries its own unique story, with slight variations and subtle imperfections that reflect the patience and skill poured into it. This hand weaving process ensures that no two pieces are exactly alike—each one is an individual work of art. These distinct qualities are a testament to the time, care, and craftsmanship behind every creation, making each piece as unique as the person who wears it.
Sustainably Crafted, Timelessly Inspired
Each piece is meticulously handwoven using sustainable materials, keeping the spirit of the craft alive. We strive to use eco-friendly rattan and responsibly sourced accents to ensure that every creation respects the environment, blending age-old techniques with modern values.
