Premium blue rye straw
From a family-run cultivation passed down for over 40 years, our Seaport blue-dyed rye straw embodies the excellence of a unique artisanal savoir-faire, grown and harvested with care from father to son. Produced in Saône-et-Loire, this straw is 100% natural, hand-sorted to keep only the most elegant stalks, free of knots or defects.
Each bundle is then hand-dyed, meeting the high standards of luxury marquetry, fine basketry, and artistic decoration. This meticulous process ensures a uniform, silky, and luminous finish.
