These vintage Céline sunglasses in transparent peach acetate with brown gradient lenses and gold-tone hardware offer a soft, refined look. In very good condition with light traces of use, they are an elegant choice for sunny city days, holidays, or adding a polished finish to everyday outfits.
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 do the size numbers 49x25x145 mean? A: These numbers usually refer to the frame measurements in millimetres: 49 mm lens width, 25 mm bridge width, and 145 mm temple length. They are helpful for comparing the fit with sunglasses you already own.
Q: Who is this size likely to suit? A: Based on the listed measurements, this pair is likely to suit small-to-medium face widths, while the 25 mm bridge gives a roomier fit across the nose. Fit can still vary by face shape, so comparing the measurements with a favourite pair is the best guide.
Q: What colour and finish are these sunglasses? A: This pair features a transparent peach acetate frame, brown gradient lenses, and gold-tone hardware. The overall look is soft, feminine, and distinctly vintage.
Q: What are brown gradient lenses like for everyday wear? A: Gradient lenses are darker at the top and lighter at the bottom, which can make them comfortable in bright light while keeping the lower field of vision a little easier to read. Brown tones are a versatile choice for everyday use.
Q: Do the lenses offer UV protection? A: Many modern CELINE sunglasses are sold with UVA and UVB protection, but this is a vintage second-hand pair and no original documentation is included here. If guaranteed UV performance is important to you, it is sensible to have the lenses checked by an optician or replaced with modern UV-protective lenses.
Q: Can prescription lenses be fitted to these sunglasses? A: In many cases, acetate designer frames can be fitted with prescription lenses. Because this is a vintage pair, final suitability depends on the condition of the frame and your optician’s assessment.
Q: Are the lenses polarised? A: Polarisation is not mentioned in the listing. Unless otherwise confirmed, it is best to treat them as standard tinted lenses rather than polarised sunglasses.
Q: What condition are these sunglasses in? A: They are listed in Very Good Condition with light traces of use. The external and internal condition are both noted as very good, and the hardware is described as shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: No extras are included with this listing. A case, box, cleaning cloth, or authenticity card are not included unless otherwise stated on the product page.
Q: How should I care for vintage acetate sunglasses? A: Clean them gently with a soft cloth, mild soap, and a little water, then dry them with a clean cloth. Avoid alcohol, acetone, harsh cleaners, and prolonged heat, and store them in a protective case when not in use.
