Magic of origami happens from paper to metal in these all hand crafted designs. These designs are “folded” from sterling silver to create different angled surfaces which are not only geometrically beautiful but also structurally sound.
Added dimension is achieved by Keum-boo applied 23k gold. During the heating process, a thin layer of gold is fused onto the surface of silver. Each piece of gold is applied and burnished by hand to obtain its own character and uniqueness.
