François-Xavier Lalanne realised six Les Autruches bars : one in the collection of the Manufacture Nationale de Sèvres, one in the Palais de l'Elysée, one in the artist's collection, two in private hands and the offered lot.
These ostriches were the first of a long series of contemporary objects realised with a new white porcelain paste called PA.A conceived by Antoine d'Albis, Head of Laboratory of the National Manufacture of Sèvres (1965-2003).
