Based on the rhombicosidodecahedron, this lamp was on my radar for more than seven years before I finally began working on it.
There's a nice 3D model down the rabbit hole, but knowing that this would be a major and challenging project, I also kept detailed notes on the process, including photos: Pentafleur project⩘ .
