Bravais Lattices are always periodic in nature and exhibit translational symmetry. They consist of a regular, repeating pattern of points or atoms, and their unit cells are identical in size and shape. They are named after the French mathematician Auguste Bravais, who described the 14 different Bravais lattices that can exist in three-dimensional space.
