Celtic Sailor Knot Lamp

thingiverse

While open to interpretation, I created this design with a clear intention in mind: to use it as a compact lamp. The box-shaped lamp features intricate Celtic sailor knots engraved on five of its exposed faces, accompanied by a built-in stand to cradle an electric tea light candle at the center, allowing for precise reflection of the Celtic patterns onto external surfaces. It's worth noting that using a flame-lit candle may cause overheating or damage to the lamp's top due to its proximity to the candle stand. The base of the box is designed to seamlessly integrate with the lamp lid, causing minimal obstruction to the Celtic knot pattern. Both the base and the lamp lid are strategically spaced apart to facilitate easy separation. When printing the design, it's advisable to orient the box upside down to minimize support requirements. Additionally, some minor supports may be necessary to print the carved patterns, which can be easily removed after the printing process is complete.
