Objects Simon de Pury’s OLT X Picasso Collection

Always dreamt of owning a Picasso? Well, now you can in the form of a hand-embroidered clutch. Art collector, DJ and auctioneer Simon de Pury has teamed up with Olympia Le-Tan to curate a new collection of signature book clutches featuring 10 masterpieces by the much-loved Spanish master. Think such famous paintings as Le rêve, Portrait de Dora Maar and Tête de femme avec un chapeau à pompons (seen here).

Each masterpiece included in the collection will be hand-embroidered into limited editions of 77 book clutches. The first three clutch designs will be released on 7 October with three new styles being released every six months. (Be sure to pre-order via the OLT website to be in with a chance of snapping one up. The waiting list is getting longer by the minute.)

‘The craftsmanship is outstanding,’ says de Pury of OLT’s clutches. ‘Ever since I was a child, I have followed [Picasso’s] work. I chose ten works that I personally love very, very much and that would translate well to a book clutch.’ Picasso’s granddaughter, Diana Picasso, adds: ‘These clutches are the ultimate luxury accessory for any art lover. I want them all!’ And so do we!
