Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What is the fit and size of these sunglasses? A: The frame measures approximately 14 cm across with a lens height of about 4 cm, offering medium coverage with a rimless shield silhouette. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions and compare with a pair you already own for the best fit.
Q: What do yellow gradient lenses do? A: Gradient lenses are darker at the top and lighter at the bottom. This helps reduce overhead glare while keeping the lower part of your vision clearer for reading or checking your phone or car dashboard. The yellow tint can enhance contrast in softer light while maintaining a warm colour tone.
Q: Do these lenses provide UV protection? A: Chanel sunglasses are designed to offer UV protection in line with international standards. Note that tint depth alone doesn’t determine UV blocking, and gradient or coloured tints are not a guarantee of UV400 on their own. If you require confirmation for this vintage pair’s original lenses, please contact us and we can advise further.
Q: Are the lenses polarised? A: Polarised lenses aren’t indicated in the product information for this piece. Chanel does produce polarised options, but unless it is specified or marked by the manufacturer, you should assume these are standard sun lenses. If polarisation is a must-have, we can discuss lens replacement options with your optician.
Q: Can these frames take prescription lenses? A: Many designer frames can be re-lensed with prescriptions by a qualified optician; however, one‑piece rimless shield styles are often more limited, and not all prescriptions or labs can accommodate them. If you’re considering prescription lenses, we recommend sharing the frame with your optician first to confirm feasibility for your specific prescription.
Q: How are these authenticated? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, finishes, engravings, signatures and stamps. For vintage Chanel eyewear, details often include a model reference on the inner temple, a Made in Italy marking and clean engravings. Note that earlier vintage pieces may not have a lens-etched serial number; its absence alone doesn’t indicate inauthenticity.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. If an item like a case or cleaning cloth isn’t listed there, it is not included with this piece.
Q: How should I care for them? A: Rinse lenses with lukewarm water and a drop of mild soap, then dry with a soft microfibre cloth. Avoid solvents, alcohol and abrasive fabrics. Store in a protective case, never place the lenses face down, and avoid wearing the glasses on your head to prevent stretching the temples—especially important for rimless or shield designs.
Q: What is the condition of this pair? A: Very Good overall, showing light traces of use consistent with careful wear. The hardware remains shiny with minor surface scratches, as noted in the condition details.
Q: Where are they made? A: These Chanel sunglasses are marked Made in Italy, consistent with Chanel’s eyewear manufacturing.
