NathanWhy It Was Made

When Nicolas Chow was questioned about this, he believes that the Emperor may have this vase made on the account of his birthday. “It is a vase that was probably made for his birthday [during] the 44th year of his reign and decorated with a great wealth of auspicious design,” Chow claims. Who was the person who made this then?
