Abel Rossignol founded the company in Voiron, in the French Alps, in 1907. It became one of the best-known names in skiing.
Side shields close off light and wind at the sides of the eyes, a feature of glasses made for high altitude and snow.
The lenses have no marks, and the glasses come with their original case. They are designed to fit men and women.
