The glass shaker pairs well with our Vietnamese Ground Black Pepper glass shaker — together they make a complete tabletop set. Refillable from our larger bag formats when it runs low.
Why French Grey Sea Salt matters
Most table salt is mined, bleached, and treated with anti-caking agents. Sel Gris de Guérande is solar-evaporated by hand from Atlantic seawater in the centuries-old salt marshes of Brittany. The natural grey color comes from mineral-rich clay at the bottom of each pan — that clay is what gives the salt its full spectrum of trace minerals.

The Mineral Difference
Not all salt is the same.
Most salt is processed, stripped, and bleached until nothing remains but sodium chloride. French Grey Sea Salt is the opposite — unrefined, alive with minerals, harvested the way it has been for centuries.
Hand-Harvested · Brittany, France
Where centuries-old tradition meets modern wellness.
French Grey Sea Salt — sel gris — is harvested by hand from the ancient clay-lined salt ponds along the Atlantic coast of Brittany, France. Skilled paludiers rake the salt at low tide using traditional wooden tools, a practice unchanged since the Middle Ages. The grey color comes from the mineral-rich clay of the ponds — not a flaw, but a sign of purity.
