Metal tooling is the art of using tools to work one side of a soft metal sheet, where artists incise designs by making grooves into it with a burin and the design is created on the front. The result is an ornamented object in itself. Embossing and engraving are two methods of creating depth in a metal. Embossing implies raised letters or designs which can be accomplished by imprinting from the underside, while engraving is the opposite, where the design is cut in, incised, impressed, and so on. When tooling a metal, we participate in an art form that has existed for centuries. Although the usage of metals in interiors depict a lot of importance and also plays a significant role, machine-made crafts are preferred over handicrafts due to enhanced speed, accuracy, efficiency, reliability, low expenditure, high production, variable designs, and new technologies. Considering, Pembarti Metal Craft, which is famous for its exquisite sheet metal artworks, globally renowned for brassware, artifacts, metal tools, and objects of daily use, statues, carvings and castings, engraved sheet metal wallpapers are created which can be used in interiors and other decorative elements. This idea creates a new trend in the designing industry and metal handicraft sector and also improves the variability and the value of the sheet metal engraving craft by creating demand for metal engraving craftsmen to have a sustainable livelihood.
