Astris by LT Piver was launched in 1904. Created by George Darzens and Pierre Armigeant. The name is an allusion to that vague period known as the "Age of Astree," the golden age, when peace and goodwill reigned on earth.

In Greek mythology, Astris (or Asteria) was one of the Heliades, daughters of Helios, either by the Oceanid Clymene or the Oceanid Ceto. She married the river god Hydaspes (the modern Jhelum River) and became mother of Deriades, king in India.
