It is the remains of a late 17th-century Chinese merchant ship that was carrying a variety of trade goods, predominantly Chinese blue and white porcelain, along the Southeast Asian trade routes. At the time of discovery, the ship held a large quantity of ceramics, along with wooden, metal artifacts, and other trade items, most of which were well-preserved.

The artifacts from the Binh Thuan shipwreck are now displayed in various museums and by private collectors, serving as valuable resources for studying the art and culture of the late Ming Dynasty.
