The rope used to make this doormat was once connecting a Maine lobsterman's buoy to his lobster trap on the bottom of the ocean. From the ocean floor to your door, this lovely, recycled lobster rope mat will not only decrease the footprints in your house, it will also assist in decreasing your environmental footprint. These mats are extremely durable & will last much longer than your average doormat (even through numerous Maine winters!).
Handwoven with 100% recycled rope.

Wondering why lobstermen can't use this perfectly good rope anymore?
Lobster rope aka float rope or pot-warp, was once the primary type of rope lobstermen use at sea. A few years back the government banned float rope buying because of whale entanglement issues, forcing lobstermen to make a switch to a different kind of rope (sink rope). This resulted in an abundance of used float rope that was headed for a landfill. I pay those lobstermen directly for their used rope in order to continue creating lovely, handmade lobster rope goods.
