GC Wine Bottle
A wine bottle generated in GC. The form itself is created by a series of quartic curves, whose radii are parametrically interrelated to each other.

The ornamental pattern is created by firstly forming tubes that pass through the diagonals of one component and then creating hyperbolic curves whose midpoints meet in the centroid of the component. The hyperbolic curves are then lofted with each respective edge of the component, forming planar surfaces.
