Rochard Adirondack Beach Chair Limoges Box Figurine, Sun Hat and Shades

An Adirondack chair sits ready on the sand with a sun hat and a pair of shades left on it, as if its owner just walked down to the water. Rochard created this porcelain Limoges box, painted by hand in Limoges, France.

Sand Between the Toes

The slanted back and wide arms of an Adirondack chair say vacation like nothing else, whether it faces the ocean, a lake or a mountain view. Adding the hat and sunglasses turns the chair into a whole summer afternoon in one small porcelain scene.

Shoreline Shelf Mates

• A Rochard design, hand-painted in Limoges, France
• Joins beach umbrella, seashell and lighthouse subjects
• Fits a beach house, lake cottage or summer collection

Gone to the Beach

Give it to a friend who just retired, a couple closing on a beach cottage, or a host who lends you the lake house each July. It belongs on a shelf in a summer rental, a sunroom, or an office desk where someone counts the days until vacation. Teachers on the last day of school also tend to appreciate the message. Set it beside a jar of sand from a favorite beach, and the scene is complete.
