Chantelle 002

Chantelle 002 Prescription Glasses

A softly squared frame is one of the most versatile shapes around. The Chantelle 002 is a unisex full-rim metal soft square frame, sized 53-16-135, in Black / Blue, Black/Gold or Black/Silver. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription.

3 colours to choose from

Black / Blue. Black / Blue pairs black with blue. It looks sharp at work and just as good with jeans at the weekend.

Black/Gold. Black/Gold pairs black with gold. It defines the eyes and goes with every outfit you own.

Black/Silver. Black/Silver mixes black and silver. It is the safest choice if you only want one pair, and it never looks out of place.

Each colour is shown in the gallery, so you can compare them side by side before you decide.

Shape and style

The softened corners suit round, oval and heart-shaped faces, adding a little shape without looking severe. The striped finish adds texture that changes as the light catches it.

Metal lets the frame stay slim and light while keeping its shape.

If you want a frame you can put on in the morning and forget about, the Chantelle 002 is a strong choice.

How to wear it

Keep the rest of your look simple and let the frame do the talking. It works just as well with workwear as it does with weekend clothes.

Size and fit

At 53mm per lens, it sits in the medium range, the most common adult fit. The 16mm bridge is on the narrow side. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 122mm.

The easiest way to check is against glasses you already love. Most frames show their size inside the arm; if yours are close to these, you are in safe territory.

Lens options for the Chantelle 002

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• Varifocals if you want to see near and far without swapping glasses.
• Single vision for one task done well, such as driving, reading or screen work.
• Bifocals if you prefer a clearly defined reading area.
• Ready readers for straightforward close-up help.

The 36mm lens depth works with single vision, bifocal and many varifocal lenses. Want lighter lenses? A high-index lens is thinner than standard plastic. Pair it with an anti-reflective coating for less glare when you drive after dark.

Before you order

Make sure your prescription is in date; most adults in the UK are advised to have an eye test every two years, and your optician will tell you if you need one sooner. You will also need your PD, which tells our lab where to centre the lenses. With those two things ready, ordering takes a few minutes: choose your colour, pick your lenses, enter your details and you are done.

Made for you in our UK lab

Every pair is made to order in our own UK lab. Your lenses are cut to your prescription, fitted into your Chantelle 002 and checked by our technicians before they are sent out.

Keep them looking new

Clean your lenses with a microfibre cloth rather than your jumper, keep them in their case when they are in your bag, and do not leave them on a sunny car dashboard. Our lens care guide has more tips.
