Type Uniform compound
Index UC45
Polyhedra 12 pentagrammic antiprisms
Faces 120 triangles, 24 pentagrams

Subgroup restricting to one constituent 5-fold dihedral (D5)

This uniform polyhedron compound is a symmetric arrangement of 12 pentagrammic antiprisms, aligned in pairs with the axes of fivefold rotational symmetry of a dodecahedron. It results from composing the two enantiomorphs of the compound of 6 pentagrammic antiprisms.
