Shaping the bottom of the pot in Krăngọ village 6/6

Ma Ly has created a cylinder of clay, that she has opened by compressing the clay between her thumbs in the inside and her fingers on the outside. Doing so, she has created a roll of clay around a flat bottom. She now compresses the bottom with her fingers to make it regular. She focusses on the lower part of the walls, to make sure that part is of the same thickness as the rest. She keeps the roll in check with her left hand to make sure that this action does not enlarge the pot more.
