Konyak carvings, girls and rice pounders |
| text: |
Konyak carving no relation to the actual human form. Girls - lithe round bodies - not at all flaby - little broad hips - no attempt to depict the slip or to mould the breasts or round the buttocks. |

The great rice pounder - 20 feet long - 3 girls stand on either side - 2 pounding into the same hole with amazing speed and dexterity - scooping the husked rice - feeding the hole - their waists darting in and out as they lift the heavy pounders. |
