A parabola is the curve of a function like y=x2

This pair of earrings showcases two different Lissajous curves

built from a simple equilateral triangle

Gyroid Earrings (Metal) Metal:14K Gold Plated Brass A parabola is the curveThese earrings have the structure of a gyroid. A gyroid is an example of a triply periodic surfacea shape that is equal to itself when translated in the x direction, the y direction, and the z direction. The equation of this surface is sin(x)cos(y) + sin(y)cos(z) + sin(z)cos(x) = 0; you can see that if (x,y,z) satisfies the equation, then (x+2,y,z) also satisfies the equation. This equation gives the surface a wavy structure in all three dimensions,
