Nested Icosa Dodeca Icosa 100mm - Yellow Core
See our complete range of Sacred Geometry designs in our Shapeways shop here and visit our Info site and Forum at SacredGeometryWeb.com The Icosahedron and Dodecahedron are 2 of the 5 Platonic solids that share a 5 symmetry. They are 'duals' of each other as is shown in this model where the innermost Icosa is stellated to produce the Dodeca that is again stellated to produce the larger Icosa. The Icosa has 12 vertexes and 20 faces whilst the Dodeca has 12 faces and 20 vertexes. The lines here are a little thick at 2mm but this makes them stronger for printing in the full color sandstone. Please find our versions with thinner lines for printing in other materials 5 symmetry shapes invariably display Golden Mean proportions. They also tend to be associated with transmutation, transmission, change, and life itself, and therefore it is no surprise to find that the DNA of living organisms is based on these molecular shapes. The star shaped forms are a symbol for spirit as the animating
