That looks like the Enneper Surface

which has a simple parametric form

thanks Daniel, so what would be a good process for achieving it?

The isolines of this particular parametrization don't form a smooth closed curve, so I trimmed it with a sphere.

I think the Weierstrass form does, but it is a bit harder to generate in this way
