serpentine (shape) (shape (form attribute), form attributes, ... Attributes and Properties (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Forms or outlines consisting of a curved line that winds or meanders in multiple directions but does not cross or intersect itself. An example is when describing furniture pieces, the fronts of which are shaped in alternating concave and convex curves. For other features, such as arches or moldings, composed of flowing, wavelike curves, use "undulating." For features consisting of or bounded by curved lines in general use "curvilinear."

Additional Notes:
Chinese (traditional) ..... 朝多個方向捲繞或彎曲的形式或輪廓,但並不與自身相交或橫穿而過的彎曲線條。如在描述家具作品時,其正面有交替凹凸的弧線形狀者。用於其他特徵,例如拱門或線腳,則為波浪般的流動曲線所組成者,稱為「波形」。由彎曲線條組成或圍起的特徵,則通稱為「盛飾式/曲線」。 
Dutch ..... Kronkelend, meanderend of golvend van vorm. Wordt vooral gebruikt met betrekking tot meubelstukken waarvan de voorkanten afwisselend concave en convexe lijnen vertonen. Gebruik 'golvend' voor andere kenmerken, zoals bogen of lijstwerken, die bestaan uit vloeiende, golvende rondingen. Gebruik 'kromlijnig' voor kenmerken die bestaan uit of worden begrensd door gebogen lijnen in het algemeen. 
Spanish ..... Forma ondulante, serpenteante, o sinuosa. Úsese especialmente con relación a piezas de mobiliario, cuyos frontis están formados alternadamente de curvas cóncavas y convexas. Para otras características tales como arcos y molduras compuestas de curvas fluidas semejantes a olas, use "ondulante”. Para características compuestas de, o definidas por líneas curvas en general, use "curvilineo”.
