The oloid, a shape obtained by connecting all points of two interlocking circles to each other has some interesting geometrical properties. Despite looking quite "bendy" it possesses no curvature, which means that it can be made perfectly using flat paper (contrary to the sphere, where each attempt at constructing it using paper it is only an approximation).
For more information on the oloid visit the wikipedia page about it.
Lit celestial globe, string lights, Neapolitan Christmas decorations and LED bar sign.
Mirrors, wood.
Inspired by a lamp by Kitty Krauss.
