Here we have put at your disposal a simple 3D model that we named Celtic repeating 3D pattern.
This 3D model has been inspired by a picture from an old book. The writing under the picture said that it was a Celtic repeating pattern, but further investigation of a variety of sources proved that in the course of history the same repeating pattern had been used by other peoples as well.
Rhino 3D
Solid 3D model - .stp (standardized 3D graphic exchange file format)
Surface 3D model - .3dm (Rhinoceros 3D CAD software native file format)
Within the 3D file there is only a segment of the repeating pattern. By simply scaling and copying the 3D segment it is possible to create a pattern of any size.
The basis for the drawing of this 3D pattern has been the 2D pattern which you can download here: Celtic repeating geometric pattern
If you do not use Rhino 3D CAD software, please download STEP file format.
