Blue and white porcelain originated in China during the Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368) and became a dominant style during the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1912) dynasties. The cobalt blue pigment used for the decoration was often imported from Persia, adding to the value and prestige of these wares. The designs typically feature landscapes, figures, and auspicious symbols.

These vases were produced for both domestic use and export, becoming highly sought after in Europe and other parts of the world. The technique involves painting the design onto the porcelain body before glazing and firing at high temperatures. The resulting pieces are prized for their beauty, durability, and cultural significance.

The glaze effect is achieved by allowing the top layer of glaze to run down the sides during firing. Influenced by the art pottery tradition, showcasing a flowing glaze effect, the style is reminiscent of the experimental glaze techniques that were popular during the early 20th century, where potters sought to create visually striking and unique surface finishes.
