This wireframe vase is not very practical as a container, but the design is interesting. It can be used to hold a tennis ball in place and prevent it from rolling: the wires act as a kind of claw which grabs the ball.

The proportions, angles, and number of units can be varied. I decided to use seven units here since I always find modulars with an odd number of modules somewhat weird.
