Chantelle 969 Swarovski Crystal

Chantelle 969 Swarovski Crystal Prescription Glasses

A clean rectangular frame works at the office, at home and everywhere in between. The Chantelle 969 Swarovski Crystal is a unisex full-rim metal rectangular frame, sized 53-17-135, in Black, Burgundy or Grey. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription.

3 colours to choose from

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. Black suits every hair colour and frames the face with confidence.

Burgundy. Burgundy is a deep wine red. It looks great with neutral outfits and a bold lip.

Grey. Grey is a soft, neutral grey. It goes with almost everything and never draws too much attention.

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

The details

Rectangular lenses suit round and oval faces, adding a bit of definition. Take a look at the arms: the detailing there is what makes this frame special.

The slim metal construction keeps it light and neat, and it is easy for an optician to adjust.

The Chantelle 969 Swarovski Crystal is a great everyday frame: smart enough for work and relaxed enough for the weekend.

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.

Frame size and fit

At 53mm per lens, it sits in the medium range, the most common adult fit. The 17mm bridge is average. The 135mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 123mm.

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 969 Swarovski Crystal

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

• 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.

The 38mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses plenty of room. With a stronger prescription, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges slim, and an anti-reflective coating cuts reflections from screens and street lights.

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

Pick your colour and lenses, add your prescription and PD, and our UK lab cuts your lenses and fits them into your Chantelle 969 Swarovski Crystal. Every pair is checked before it leaves us.

A little care goes a long way

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.
