The design of this brûle-parfum derives from a drawing for a porcelain and ormolu gueridon table by the celebrated architects and ornemanistes C. Percier and P.F.L. Fontaine. It was first illustrated in their Recueil de Décorations Intérieures, Paris, 1801-1812, pl. XXI, while a further related example is in Schloss Pillnitz, Dresden (illustrated G. Haase and G. Reinheckel, Kunsthandwerk des 18. und 19. Jahrhunderts, Schloss Pillnitz, Dresden, 1978, p. 157. fig. E.26).
A pair of closely related brûle-parfums is at Osterley Park, Middlesex (illustrated in J. Hardy, 'Osterley Park House', Guide Book, 1985, p.34). Further related examples sold at auction include that originally from the collection of King Umberto II of Italy, sold Christie's London, 9 December 2004, lot 45, and more recently that sold 'Champalimaud Collection', 6-7 July 2005, lot 175 (£22,800 with premium).
