CHANEL 4250
Vintage Round Metal Sunglasses With Woven Raffia Detail
Made in Italy | Y2K Era
OVERVIEW
Authentic vintage Chanel sunglasses from the late 1990s–early 2000s, model 4250, featuring a classic round metal silhouette accented with a woven raffia (straw) surround encircling each lens. This is a design-forward Chanel piece from the fashion-editorial era—subtle, architectural, and unmistakably intentional.
A rare combination of natural texture and refined metal construction, produced in Italy during a period when Chanel eyewear leaned experimental while remaining timeless.
