Ifugao is renowned for its adept metalworking skills, particularly in crafting spoons adorned with intricate details, such as anthropomorphic and zoomorphic figures. The copper pakko (spoon) holds special cultural significance, often included as part of a dowry in marriages, symbolizing wealth and elevated social status. In the Cordillera region, ornamentation not only showcased craftsmanship but also served as a clear indicator of social standing and prestige (Maramba, 1998).
