Joining coils to shape the wall of a cooking pot in Buôn Trấp village

H’Loan Bkrong has added coil to a base until the pot reaches the desired height. She now uses her right hand’s fingers to rub the pot vertically on the outside, then on the inside. This action smoothes the surface, erasing the joins of the coil, but also already helps to give a general shape to the pot. Lương Thanh Sơn is taking pictures of the process.
