Tradition & Lore
Folklore & Botany
Harvested from the violet crocus flower, saffron has illuminated cultures for millennia. In Persia and India, it was blended into morning tonics for happiness and renewal; in ancient Greece, it symbolized light and divine connection. Its radiant color inspired artists, healers, and mystics alike; a pigment of joy drawn from the earth itself. Each thread of saffron represents extraordinary care, tens of thousands of blossoms hand-picked for just a few grams. It is a reminder that illumination, like morning itself, often begins quietly.
