The Moscot optical roots were first planted in America by Great Great Grandfather and family patriarch, Hyman Moscot, who arrived from Eastern Europe via Ellis Island in 1899. Hyman began selling ready-made eyeglasses from a pushcart on Orchard Street on Manhattan's famed Lower East Side. Moscot is a family owned business that has been infusing refined aesthetics, unparalleled craftsmanship with over 100 years of eyewear expertise.
