The Delicate, Unique Designs of Joy de Rohan Chabot

The French artist and designer Joy de Rohan Chabot has created a fairy tale world with her exuberant works and her joie de vivre. DE ROHAN CHABOT keeps a studio in a greenhouse that she built off the side of her town house in Paris, where she creates her collection of tableware: delicate tumblers, bowls, goblets and plates adorned with tiny wildflowers, tangled fronds of vegetation and under-the-sea scenes. "IT'S LIKE AN OLD SHOE," de Rohan Chabot says of the house in the 16th Arrondissement where she and her family have lived for the past 38 years. The house used to have a formal dining room, but de Rohan Chabot thought that was "Very boring." Most of the time now, meals are casual, unceremonious.
