Small Stellated Dodecahedron as Ornament

Here is a small stellated dodecahedron with a hole in one pyramid that serves as a point for hanging. Two related polyhedra are also included.

The method of construction replaces each face of a dodecahedron with scaleable pentagonal pyramids. The right choice of scale factor gives a small stellated dodecahedron. Another known polyhedron, the Catalan solid called the pentakis dodecahedron, can also be constructed.

The two additional polyhedra included here are composed of 60 approximatel
