Can't unfold

I want to apply a special pattern to the surface of this vase. For this, I need to unfold its surface. I have tried remaking it using sheet metal tools after failing with a solid one, however, it fails again.

 

Here's the error text: @"Error: Can't complete Sheet Metal operation due to an internal error. Check the body and bend parameters, then try again.SM_UNFOLD_UNSUPPORTED_SURFACE"

 

How can I adapt the existing design if it is impossible to unfold? Can I first apply the pattern to a flat surface and deform it afterwards as an option?

I don't think this works with splines as profiles as that creates a non-developable surface.
