The Chocolate acetate features a deep, rich brown tone with a warm, earthy feel—closer to dark melted chocolate than flat brown. Like the rest of the range, it’s fully biodegradable, made using organic colour pigments blended with plant-based cellulose acetate sourced entirely from vegetable matter.

The blue tint sharpens outlines and supports more natural colour balance, while offering a calmer feel for the eyes. It’s particularly useful for cutting glare in misty, foggy, or snowy conditions. Each lens is finished with anti-scratch and anti-reflective coatings, along with full UVA/UVB protection. Produced by Carl Zeiss, known for precision optics.

Frame width | 143.4 mm
Frame height | 53.7 mm

Monokel Eyewear are a unisex sunglass label based in Stockholm, Sweden. The main material in their frames is a premium plant-based acetate, and all-black frames are made with recycled acetate. The lenses are made by Carl Zeiss Vision®. Each frame is handcrafted with tremendous attention to detail in a process taking well over three months.

The brand philosophy stems from a mix of simplicity and functionalism, paired with an endless curiosity for the human mind and its need for creative expression.
