The underside of the ink stand is inscribed in vermillion lacquer with a two-character signature Kuisheng. Lu Kuisheng (? – 1850) was a native of Yangzhou and hailed from a family known for making lacquer wares. Lu Kuisheng himself was particularly famous for making the current type of lacquered wood ink stones, which are distinguished by their lightness and resistance to wear, and by the elegantly decorated fitted boxes, or stands with covers.
