SerpentSea was founded in 2011 by Sophie Sevigny who started making mats out of recycled marine rope after a sailing trip to Nantucket. Each mat is unique and woven by hand with reclaimed ropes. All knots are traditional knots and have been tied by sailors for centuries for practical purposes as well as decor. The mats can be used both indoors and out, and will add a nautical flair to any space.
