Frequently Asked Questions

CHANEL eyewear is defined by the iconic double C logo, the interlaced leather and chain temple detail (a direct reference to the legendary 2.55 handbag), tweed and pearl embellishments, and geometric shapes that echo the Maison’s ready-to-wear silhouettes.
CHANEL eyewear is assembled by skilled artisans using high-grade acetate, lightweight metals, and mineral lenses — to the same exacting standards the House applies across all its categories.
