Roussilhe is a French eyewear manufacturer certified Origine France Garantie. The brand designs and produces its frames in its Oyonnax workshops (Jura) and offers six in-house collections for adults and children.
Founded in 1979 by Michel Roussilhe between Morez and Oyonnax, the company has been promoting product culture since its origins. Since 2005, it has been led by Ludovic Brochard and Maxime Rolandeau, relying on a 1,600 m² production site in the Jura mountains. It obtained the Origine France Garantie label in 2012. In 2022, the brand updated its visual identity to reaffirm its values and French production.
Each frame undergoes more than 80 manual steps. Acetate is central (design, cutting, rivets, and polishing carried out in-house), while some lines also use metal. Design codes are seen in the collections: Origines (bold shapes, refined details, traditional 3-rivet hinges, tortoiseshell and colored acetates), Millésimes (slender lines, subtle tones, a mix of metal and acetate with engraved details), POP (expressive forms and colorful assemblies). The 3D line uses a biosourced polyamide (castor oil based) and a premium flex-hinge system.
The brand offers six main collections: Origines, Millésimes, POP, POPiz (for children aged 5–12, in metal or acetate), Bonnie (feminine frames with soft curves), and Miss Bonnie (for small faces and teenagers, 13 models in 6 sizes). Clyde brings retro-inspired thin frames from the 50s/60s, while 3D offers a masculine line produced with 3D printing.
Design, prototyping, and acetate frame production take place in the Oyonnax workshops: hinge inlays, rivet setting, polishing. The brand documents eco-responsible practices (short supply chain, energy control, working conditions) and invested in 2023 in a dedicated space to collect acetate scraps for recycling and reintegration. The 3D line is described as low-energy, waste-free, made from hypoallergenic biosourced material.
Roussilhe sells exclusively to optical professionals. Its frames are available to the public through a network of partner opticians.
As an integrated French manufacturer certified Origine France Garantie, Roussilhe positions itself with handmade eyewear crafted in France, combining artisanal know-how, a wide variety of styles (classic, colorful, retro, children’s) and documented responsible production initiatives.
