Vision Janine offers high-end vintage sunglasses, carefully refurbished in France. Each piece is unique, selected for its style, rarity, or history.

For us, vintage eyeglasses are more than 20 years old. This means they were made before 2005. You'll find original frames with us, dating from around 1910 to 2010.

This is therefore an authentic frame from years past, cleaned, fully restored for a complete refurbishment and fitted with new "optician" quality sunglasses, namely the same quality of lenses as at a high-end optician.

Almost! In our collections, you'll find so-called "dead stock" eyeglass frames—which means they're vintage but still new—and others that have already had a life and have been worn.

ALL frames have been refurbished in our workshop near Lyon, cleaned, repolished, repaired, pampered, and more. And most importantly, the lenses are all new and selected for their quality, meeting the same standards as those you'll find at your optician.

Yes. All our frames are original and carefully selected from collectors, former opticians, or forgotten stock. Authenticity is verified before being put up for sale.

Our prices reflect the rarity of the model, the brand, the original condition, the complexity of the restoration and the quality of the materials (acetate, Optyl, gold metal, etc.).

The complexity of solar glass can also impact the price.

Yes! A pretty little Janine case, with a cleaning cloth to take care of your glasses and help them continue to travel through time for a long time to come... It's FREE of course.

Our models come from all over the world: France, Italy, Germany, Japan... always with a focus on quality and originality. The origin is always specified.

The restoration is entirely carried out in France, in our workshop in Villefranche sur Saône near Lyon, by Adèle, co-founder of Janine, trained by artisan eyewear makers specializing in vintage and the best craftsmen in France.

This process includes cleaning, polishing, adjusting (re-dressing) and replacing lenses, as well as replacing consumables (nose pads, sleeves, screws, etc.). It is a demanding process that takes between 1 hour (minimum) and 3 hours for the most complex or damaged frames.

Today, Adèle's experience with vintage frames makes her one of the few specialists in France in the restoration and repair of glasses.

The curation we offer is studied according to current trends.

We favor pieces with remarkable designs, from iconic fashion houses or independent eyewear makers.

Each model is selected for its aesthetic potential, comfort and good structural condition.

Absolutely. By repurposing existing frames rather than producing new ones, we contribute to circular, elegant, and environmentally friendly fashion.

We don't yet offer a reservation service. Since our models are unique, we recommend you don't wait too long if you fall in love with them.

- If the size does not fit you:

The product sheets detail the exact dimensions of the frame (width, height, nose distance, temple length). You can compare these measurements with a pair you already own. Also consider visiting your local optician who will help you adjust the frame to your face (in most cases this is sufficient even if the size is not exactly right for you). If it really doesn't fit, returns are accepted within 15 days.

- If the style does not suit you or you have changed your mind:

Returns are accepted within 15 days. So if you change your mind, just send them back!

Our glasses come with a 3-month warranty against any restoration defects. The sunglasses are brand new and CE certified.

Yes and no.... Vision Janine only offers non-prescription sunglasses.

Our models are designed as fashion accessories with a strong visual identity.

However, you can order the frame and go to any optician of your choice to order a fitting for your Janine glasses and prescription lenses.

This can happen, especially for rare and authentic vintage models, but we prefer to use our own supply networks.

If you have one or more frames to suggest, you can always send us photos to contact@visionjanine.com.
