I have no idea "who made the item." This is a small but perfect condition Oriental vase. A note inside the vase reads: "This Ming vase is very old, dating from the Tang dynasty 618-908 AD. Do Not Drop." I have found "knock-offs" of this design. But this vase is much more detailed in the artwork.

Adorned with a blue design on a white vase, it exemplifies the classic aesthetics of Tang Dynasty ceramics. It is hand-painted with Asian motifs such as dragons in the skies, among clouds.
