This authentic Christian Dior 2299 frame is a rare late-1970s to early-1980s model made in Austria and constructed with Dior’s proprietary Optyl front — a featherweight, heat-adaptive material designed to retain shape and resist warping — paired with sculpted metal temples featuring engraved “CD” logos and signature gold coil detailing at the hinges.

The front frame features a rich, warm translucent amber hue, designed to catch light and highlight the contours of the oversized silhouette. It’s elegant, sculptural, and distinctly Dior.

Historical Notes:

This 2299 model reflects Christian Dior’s vision during the late 70s and early 80s — combining futuristic materials (Optyl) with bold architectural shapes and logo-forward design. Frames like these were produced in collaboration with Optyl International, one of the most respected frame makers of the period, before Dior shifted licensing agreements in the 90s.
