Emanuela
I read a book on topology many years ago in the school library and was fascinated by the Mobius strip and the Klein bottle. I believe there is a glass-blower who sells 'Klein bottles' over the 'net, if you're interested. Of course, since he can't twist them in the fourth dimension, they're not 'actual' Klein bottles, but the closest thing you'll get to a bottle without an inside.
The shape that interests me most, topologically, is the torus - it seems to be capable of doing anything, and fitting into just about any sphere of scientific experimentation...
