To mold the so-called "lotus foot" girls of around six years old had
their feet folded in two and tightly wrapped in strips of cloth, an
agonising process that would break the bones.

Deep incisions made in the arches would force the foot to bend into a
shape not unlike that of a modern high-heeled shoe.

"It was so painful that when my mother turned away I would loosen the
bandages immediately," Zhou said.

"But with small feet a woman could look for a handsome, rich man. My
feet were wrapped tightly and were small so I was fortunate and
married into a good family."
