Chantelle 003

Chantelle 003 Prescription Glasses

A round frame is an easy way to add a little character. The Chantelle 003 is a unisex full-rim metal round frame, sized 54-18-140, in Shiny Gold / Black, Shiny Gold /Pink or Shiny Silver. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription.

3 colours to choose from

Shiny Gold / Black. Shiny Gold / Black is a good everyday shade. It defines the eyes and goes with every outfit you own.

Shiny Gold /Pink. Shiny Gold /Pink is a good everyday shade. It gives a polished, classic finish that never looks loud.

Shiny Silver. Shiny Silver is easy to wear. It is a quiet, professional finish that works with navy, charcoal and white.

If you are stuck between two, choose the one closest to the colours you wear most. You can always add a second pair later.

Design details

Round frames soften angular features, so they are a great match for square and heart-shaped faces. 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 003 is a strong choice.

Styling tips

Choose the colour closest to what you wear most and it will go with almost everything.

Frame size and fit

The 54mm lenses put it at the upper end of medium. The 18mm bridge is average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 126mm.

Not sure about sizing? Compare these numbers with the ones on the inside arm of a pair that fits you well. A difference of two or three millimetres or less usually means a similar fit.

Lens options for the Chantelle 003

Your optician’s prescription will usually tell you which of these you need:

• Single vision: one prescription across the whole lens, for distance, reading or the computer.
• Varifocal: near, intermediate and distance in one lens, with no visible line.
• Bifocal: a separate reading segment in the lower part of the lens.
• Ready readers: simple magnification if you just need help with close work.

At 44mm, the lens depth is deeper than most frames in our range, so varifocal lenses have lots of room. 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.

How your glasses are made

Every pair is made to order in our own UK lab. Your lenses are cut to your prescription, fitted into your Chantelle 003 and checked by our technicians before they are sent out.

Looking after them

Use lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before putting your glasses down, and store them in a hard case. Our guide to looking after your lenses covers the rest.
