Peter Langstraat, the owner of this exclusive collection, has personally met many acquaintances and and the son (Claude) of Pablo Picasso. His deep connections and passion for Picasso’s legacy ensure the authenticity and integrity of every piece in the gallery.
"Owning a Picasso ceramic is more than owning art; it’s holding history, innovation, and Picasso’s essence in your hands. Each piece tells a story—ready to become part of yours. It fits in any househould and brings joy!" — Peter Langstraat
The Picasso ceramic numbered A.R. 174, titled "Oiseau au soleil" ("Bird Under the Sun"), is a white earthenware ashtray created in 1952 at the Madoura pottery studio in Vallauris, France. This ceramic piece is a fine example of Picasso’s ability to transform everyday objects into artistic masterpieces, combining his love for animals with bold, expressive design.
The circular form of the ashtray provides the perfect canvas for a stylized bird, gracefully depicted beneath a radiant sun, a motif commonly found in Picasso’s work. The decoration is applied using black oxide under a white glaze, creating a striking contrast that enhances the composition’s energy and movement. Measuring approximately 6 inches (15.2 cm) in diameter, this ceramic is both an artistic and functional piece.
"Oiseau au soleil" was produced in a limited edition of 500, with each piece individually numbered, inscribed ‘Edition Picasso,’ and stamped ‘Madoura Plein Feu’ on the underside, confirming its authenticity and origin. This ceramic reflects Picasso’s passion for ceramics as a medium for storytelling and artistic exploration, making it a highly sought-after collector’s item and a beautiful representation of his work in applied arts.

"Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more."
