About 4 years ago, I was messing around with this pattern. A simplified form eventually ended up being used in the chain maille piece that I had in the Bridges Art Exhibition this year.

It consists of edge-touching rings of edge-touching nonagons

In the center, you can see a ring surrounded by a ring of 6 rings surrounded by 12 and then 18

It has rotational, but not mirror symmetry, even though it might look like it should.
