A half moon of warm timber set on an openwork metal gallery, worn to a soft chalky white.
Rolande is a demilune wall shelf with a fir timber top and a pierced metal gallery beneath. The gallery is a ball-and-bar lattice finished in a distressed chalky white, worn back in places to the bare metal so it reads as found rather than new. The top is a clean half circle with a softly rounded front edge.
At 60.5cm along the wall and 20cm deep, it gives a generous ledge for a small plant, a stack of cups, a candle, or a framed photo. It sits flush to the wall on the straight back edge, so it works in an entry, kitchen, bathroom, or beside a bed. The chalky white and bare timber suit French provincial, cottage, and shabby chic rooms.
Why we love it
◆A shape with presence, the half moon reads softer than a straight shelf and fills a bare wall without crowding it.
◆Distressed white over bare metal, the openwork gallery is worn back so it looks gently aged, not factory fresh.
◆A real working ledge, the fir timber top holds everyday decor, cups, a small pot, a candle, or a photo frame.
◆Part of a pair, hang it with the smaller Rita at staggered heights for a collected wall.

How to style it
Rolande is a shallow gallery shelf, so style it low and let the timber top show.
Stand a candle from our candle holders with a few dried stems.
Set a small framed print and a bud vase from our vases for an entry or hallway.
Pair it with the smaller Rita half moon shelf at staggered heights, the way the photos show, or group it with other shelves and corbels.
Keep what you place on it light so the openwork gallery stays the feature.
Stylist's Tip
Hang Rolande lower and the smaller Rita higher so the pair steps up the wall. Staggered heights read more collected than a matched row.
Care & Keeping
Dust gently with a soft dry cloth, and use a dry soft brush to reach between the openwork gallery. Keep it indoors and away from damp, since the metal can mark and the timber top is not sealed for outdoor use. The distressing is part of the finish, so a little wear at the edges is intended, not a fault. Mounting hardware is not included.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Rolande be used outdoors?
It is made for indoor use. The metal gallery can mark in damp air and the timber top is not sealed for weather, so keep it inside or in a fully covered, dry spot.
What style of room does it suit?
French provincial, cottage, and shabby chic first, with a coastal lean from the chalky white. It sits well against white, cream, sage, or exposed brick walls.
How big is it?
It runs 60.5cm along the wall, stands 10.5cm tall at the gallery, and projects about 20cm out as a half circle. That is a generous ledge for cups, a small plant, a candle, or a framed photo.
Will mine look exactly like the photos?
Each piece is hand-finished, so the distressing and the way the white wears back to the metal vary a little from one to the next. These small differences are part of the character and are not faults.
Is this sold as a pair?
No. Rolande is the larger size and is sold on its own. The smaller Rita half moon shelf is a separate listing. The photos show both together so you can see how the pair looks, but each is purchased separately.
Because Rolande is hand-finished, slight variations in patina, texture, and wear are natural and add to the unique character of each piece. Colour may also vary slightly between screens, all photography is taken in natural light.

I was scared to open my parcel due to past experience with buying on line with less than perfect purchases.
This parcel, from the packaging to the presentation has been more than expected.
Thank you very much.

My recent purchases look amazing in my garden… my delivery arrived promptly and the communication from Chateau was explanatory as to where and what was happening. I liked the follow up emails … thanks
I am so glad I bought these beautiful Dragonflies! I only have a small front verandah, but I wanted to place them out here. Dragonflies, are my spirit animals.
I bought special hooks to place on the window so I could hang them. I placed them behind my buddha, and I feel they look very decorative and effective.
I lurve the Rocco French Provincial Lidded Canister. It's just gorgeous! My pics are not its final destination or styling. I added these very large hydrangeas so you can see how big it is and how much it can hold. The product is high quality and stands on its own regardless of how you choose to style it. I adore the antique gold finish and will be buying other products. Communication about my purchase and delivery was great, and all products were packed well. Thankfully, I'm in a 2-bedroom apartment; otherwise, I'd need a VIP card.
I love my new products and will be purchasing more. They are particularly nice next to my ginger jars, but I'm testing out places for them before I decide whether I will style them with or without a floral arrangement and where they'll be placed. This is a great quality product and the size I wanted (fairly large). The delivery was prompt; communication was great about what was happening and when, and the products arrived safely and without damage, as they were packaged appropriately. I was so happy, I wrote to the team straight away to say thanks.
I enjoyed reading the Chateau Styling Guide very much. I appreciate the collection of beautiful pieces Lucie has made available to her clients. And I agree with the idea that one should never ‘rush’ to complete a room or your home. It is so satisfying to finally find that one special piece you know will add to the look of your home. Thank you so much for this booklet. It will be a great resource to refer to.
