The symbolism of the volcano is inseparable from that of the mountain and the lava. The volcano is associated with the domain of the gods and telluric forces. It is an enormous power , terribly dangerous and destructive. The inner fire of magma, when it rises in the form of lava, is synonymous with impetuous and unpredictable anger. The Volcano is a force of nature , this vital force is in each of us and pushes us to accomplish great things, it is a fire that we must preserve and maintain in order to surpass ourselves.

The arts of embroidery are believed to have originated in the Orient and Middle East. Early humanity quickly discovered that the stitches used to connect animal skins together could also be used to embellish clothing.

Delicately embroidered clothing has always been a mark of wealth and status in many cultures, including ancient Persia, India, China, Japan, Byzantium and Europe. Traditional folk techniques have been passed down from generation to generation in cultures as diverse as northern Vietnam, Mexico and Eastern Europe. Today, most contemporary embroidery is stitched using an embroidery machine. Misericordia uses embroidery to give its clothing a unique and artistic look.

All of our embroidered sweatshirts are made in our own workshop in Lima. Thousands of sewing stitches are necessary to obtain levels of embroidery with such realistic rendering and impeccable finishes.
