The unusually generous bombé form and star inlay of this commode are remarkably similar to a Neapolitan commode illustrated in M. Agnelli, ed. Mobili Italiani del Settecento, Milan, 1990. A virtually identical commode sold Sotheby's Monaco, 2 December 1998, lot 334, and another closely related example sold Christie's Milan, 19 May 1998, lot 673.
