She Guo Guan was active during the Qianlong period, and was famous for his carving of orchids and bamboo.

The sensitive low-relief style of carving on this brush pot is similar to that found on one carved with magnolia and peony, dated late 16th/early 17th century included in the exhibition, Selected Ivory Carvings from the Sir Victor Sassoon Chinese Ivories Trust, Phillips, London, 9 - 20 November 1999, no. 7.
