This is the application of Lissajous* figures utilizing the interaction of two perpendicular sinusoidal wave-forms to create 3D artistic forms for home decoration in the shape of a vase and flowers.
The outer area of the vase is an open void framework of vertically orientated curved elements arranged in a circle with a hollow cylinder forming the cavity.
The models were created using BlocksCAD which allowed the mathematical creation and manipulation of Lissajous figures to create the basic form to which elements are added or removed.
If you intend to add a flowers its recommended to use an internal container as the cavity is not waterproof by design. Even if the cavity holds water without leaking, an internal container is preferable at it can be easily cleaned.
The following is an example of an internal container that can be used:
Acrylic Clear 100(dia) x 200(long) mm (protrudes a little above the top of the vase)

*Lissajous figures named after Jules-Antoine Lissajous (Also known as Bowditch Curves after the initial work of Nathaniel Bowditch), who devised a method to study compound vibrations. Originally employing pendulums, tuning forks and optical methods. Reflecting light from mirrors on two tuning forks vibrating at right angles will display Lissajous figures as will other devices such as Harmonographs and Panto-graphs.

With these settings the print time was 24 hours, subject to your particular printer and variation in settings the print time may differ.
Ensure your printer is well calibrated, you may have to set the speed much slower than that specified and/or adjust travel parameters as the 3rd level of curves have a larger arc which can suffer greater stress due to over extrusion at the cross sectional edge of the area being printed that may impact with the nozzle.
