Flower of salt is harvested in the Guérande salt marshes, late in the afternoon during very dry weather. Under the combined effect of the sun and a dry east wind, a fine skin of crystals forms on the surface of the “œillets”.

This skin, which is a pure white as it has never touched clay, is carefully gathered by the salt workers using a special rake known as the “lousse à fleur”. The very special weather conditions and the small quantity produced make it a rare and much sought-after product.
