Firstly, you need to create and mount a recovery database - check http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee332321.aspx for the same.

Then, find out the mailbox's archive GUID with this cmdlet:  get-mailbox <UserID> | fl ArchiveGUID

After getting the GUID, use it to execute New-MailboxRestoreRequest cmdlet like this:

New-MailboxRestoreRequest -SourceDatabase <RecoveryDB> -SourceStoreMailbox "<ArchiveGUID>" -TargetMailbox "UserID" -TargetIsArchive

You can monitor the progress using get-MailboxRestoreRequest cmdlet

Hi,

According to your description, I understand that you want to know how to restore mailbox from archive database.
If I misunderstand your concern, please do not hesitate to let me know.

We can deploy In-Place Archiving in Exchange 2013, more details about it please refer to:

Meanwhile, we can restore data using a recovery database. As Jason mentioned, details for your reference:
