Our Story

 

Keith and Susy PilgrimWaters designers and makers, Gloucester MA

Susy Pilgrim Waters and Keith Waters are husband and wife. Together, they established PilgrimWaters in 2012, and today they design and manufacture their unique collection of practical products.

Susy's passion for textiles and surface design results in one-of-a-kind apparel. Woven cashmere and merino wool scarves and throws are exquisitely handmade and printed with Susy's unique surface designs. More recently, cotton and silk woven in India are beautifully handprinted and then stitched into dresses, scarves, and large heirloom-quality throws. Keith's 3D experience informs a functional, practical, small batch of handcrafted end tables and trays that are carefully handmade and printed in his workshop in Gloucester, MA.

Born and raised in Great Britain, Susy and Keith are now based in Gloucester, MA, in the USA. Their range of home and apparel products draws on their professional backgrounds. Susy is an award-winning illustrator, and Keith is a pioneer in computer graphics. Their combined experiences inform a modern, handcrafted aesthetic with expert fabrication.

Our textiles are handcrafted with artisan partners in Nepal and India, combining traditional craft techniques with Susy's original surface designs.

Functionality is key – with color, natural materials, and graphic elements coming together in products such as elegant scarves, tea towels, and trays. For updates, news, and product features, please sign up for our newsletter below.
