Yu Min Zhong (1714-1779), a native of Jiangsu, was a high-ranking official under the Qianlong emperor who served as a provincial governor and then a chief councilor under der Qianlong emperor who established a multi-ethnic corps of governors who functioned within a standardised and regulated administrative world. Provincial administration became one of the central pillars of Qing rule. His name appears on this unusual object which may have been presented to the Qianlong emperor by Yu Minzhong as the seal suggests.
