Origin

The Pakko Mukko embroidery is considered of a very high standard. This embroidery uses silver and gold metallic threads. This makes Mukko difficult to render and demands high skill and dexterity of the craftswomen. Even so, this embroidery is enjoyed a lot by the artisans, so much that they render it not only on ceremonial clothing (for which purpose it was originally invented) but also on their daily wear apparel.
