Hi Ken . Welcome to the site. Is this what you mean, by folding metal. This is by an English silversmith. I hope I don't get into trouble posting this on here.
Liner Jug" by Toby Russell, 2010
Sterling silver - scored and folded by hand from flat sheet
In order to produce his scored and sheet folded jug, Toby Russell had to overcome the challenge of converting his final design from a card model into silver. He explains “Paper has its own unique quality and in some ways is less flexible than silver sheet. I never truly know how the design will convert or how far the silver can be pushed”.
The image that inspired Toby throughout the design process was that of a prow of a boat cutting through water and as a keen swimmer and surfer, he is naturally drawn to images of waves.
