I would like one like it for the Paradise
Gogle up Mu metal film for shield
PS paradise do not need much my is on open air waiting for box it has been 5 or 6 months and I am still looking for one
Looking this up there are places in the EU doing 3D printing with metals including copper, maximum size for the one below isn't very big (88 x 88 x 125mm) but there must be people doing a bit larger.

Good quality mild steel will do the job nicely.
If you want one purely for the looks get a steel one and get it plated, gold plating looks really good :D
For magnetic shielding you actually need a material with high magnetic permeability, for example mu-metal, which is much less 'magnetic' that mild steel.
You could line the inside of the enclosure with a Mu-Metal Mesh which are connected at all sides (like a Faraday Cage)
Couple of links for ya

Mu-metal is very sensitive to shock, and looses its shielding properties near to where it has been cut and/or bent into a tight radius.
This might be a better choice: https://www.amazon.co.uk/YSHIELD%C2%...7WKBKTVJ1RADM3
