Its robust bulbous body is decorated with incised floral scrolling, and its lid of lotus leaf form. It has a low foot largely concealed beneath the swelling body of the ewer. Such glazed stoneware ewers were produced in the ceramic industry that prospered in the Hong (Red) River delta region of northern Vietnam in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Although this ceramic industry emerges as a major producer of glazed stoneware ceramics for the Southeast Asian markets, such ewers are rarely found in an export context and appears to have been largely for domestic consumption.
