Weng Tonghe was a Chinese Confucian scholar and politician. In 1865, Weng was appointed as a tutor to the Tongzhi Emperor as well as a lecturer to the two empress dowagers. His diary entry from 26 May 1897 records receiving this scent bottle as a gift from the Russian Ambassador, who was Alexander Pavlov (1860–1923) at the time, together with a pair of hardstone dishes and a diamond brooch. It has remained in the Weng family since.
