html - Oblique or twisted border shape

Question

I'm interested if it's possible to create wrapped (or maybe better said twisted) border using CSS. Effect I wanted to achieve is in the picture.

Answer 1

Most easiest and neat solution would be to use svg to create the border.

#container {
  position: relative;
  width: 200px;
  height: 30px;
}
#content {
  text-transform: uppercase;
  position: absolute;
  width: 200px;
  height: 30px;
  top: 0;
  text-align: center;
  line-height: 30px;
}

<div id="container">
  <svg width="200" height="30" viewBox="-1 -2 201 33">
    <path d="M0,0 h200 l-15,15 l15,15 h-200 l15,-15z" stroke="black" stroke-width="2" fill="none" />
  </svg>
  <div id="content">lorem ipsum</div>
</div>
