Grande Rarité – Extra Coarse

Grande Rarité – Strictly Limited Selection

Grande Rarité
An old expression for a rarity born of a world far older than our own.

Persia’s rarest crystals. In their most elemental form.

Only a few hundred kilograms exist worldwide each year. The greater part never reaches the open market.

In its extra-coarse grain, Grande Rarité reveals the full beauty of these exceptional crystals. Transparency, refraction of light and the natural nuances of blue, petrol and violet emerge here with an intensity no finer grain can display. Each crystal appears as a small geological work of art – formed deep within the Earth across almost unimaginable spans of time.

Grande Rarité is the most uncompromising selection produced by our atelier. From all the Persian Blue Salt that reaches us, we choose only those crystals distinguished by exceptional clarity, transparency, depth of colour and expression. Every individual crystal is selected, examined and assessed by hand in our Swiss atelier. It is then carefully broken by hand and meticulously sorted by size, creating the different grain sizes within the Grande Rarité line. The process is slow, exacting and uncompromisingly honest. The resulting quantities are small. The resulting quality is exceptional.

With its extra-coarse grain of 7–9 mm, Grande Rarité is especially suited to exclusive salt mills, dramatic finishing and exceptional haute-cuisine presentation. The larger crystals provide maximum visibility, distinctive texture and a fascinating interplay of colour directly on the plate.

A salt of exceptional rarity. And exceptional beauty.
