Riverbank Weave & A Weaver’s Resolve
Along Bangladesh’s Meghna River, artisans harvest hogla seagrass and date-leaf fiber, then sun-dry and twist each strand before stitching them into a crisp 12-inch cube that fits bookshelves, cube units, and closets. Undyed fibers shift from straw to sage, proving their chemical-free origin, while tight rows keep walls rigid when filled.
