This object was created through Chinese ceramic influence. The white background with cobalt blue decorations were influenced by the porcelain pieces made in China before the "Ming Gap". Additionally, the imagery of birds was present in art during the 16th century. Birds symbolize beauty, dignity, and peace, so one can assume that the creator of this object had this in mind when crafting this ewer. See the image of "Ewer in the Form of a Phoenix" for comparison. A vietnamese potter would have made this ewer with these conditions in mind.
