In very good condition with light traces of use, they are an elegant choice for sunny city days, holiday getaways or adding a refined vintage touch to everyday looks.
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 are the key details of these Christian Dior sunglasses? A: This vintage pair features a brown tortoiseshell frame, gold-tone hardware, gradient lenses and CD logos at the temples. The country of origin label is Austria.
Q: What condition are they in? A: They are in very good vintage condition overall, with light signs of use noted in the listing. The hardware shows scratches and discolouration, which is reflected in the product information.
Q: Are these sunglasses authentic? A: Yes. Every item sold by A Retro Tale is reviewed by in-house experts and offered as an authentic pre-owned designer piece.
Q: Do they come with a case or any extras? A: Only items specifically shown or listed with the product should be assumed to be included. No box, authenticity card or other extras are specified for this pair.
Q: Can the lenses be replaced with prescription lenses? A: In many cases, yes. Vintage designer sunglass frames can often be fitted with prescription or replacement sun lenses by a skilled optician, provided the frame is structurally sound. We recommend having the frame assessed before any lens work is carried out.
Q: Do vintage sunglasses still provide reliable UV protection? A: Not always. With vintage sunglasses, UV performance cannot be guaranteed from appearance alone, and older lenses may not meet modern standards. If you plan to wear them regularly in strong sun, an optician can test the lenses or advise on replacement.
Q: How should I clean and store them? A: Clean them gently with lukewarm water, mild soap and a soft microfibre cloth. Avoid paper towels, alcohol-based cleaners, harsh chemicals and prolonged heat. When not in use, store them in a protective case to help preserve the frame and lenses.
Q: Are sizing measurements available for fit? A: This listing does not provide standard eyewear sizing such as lens width, bridge width or temple length. If exact fit is important to you, please contact us before purchase for any additional measurements we may be able to provide.
Q: Why is Austria listed as the country of origin? A: Many vintage Christian Dior eyewear styles were produced in Austria, particularly older designer frames from the late twentieth century, so an Austrian origin label is consistent with genuine vintage Dior eyewear.
