Mathematical Model – Icosahedron

Coxeter · Mathematics

A colourful model representing an icosahedron. The model is made of triangular “plates” connected by wires at their vertices. It is similar in construction to 2016.mat.38. Each side is covered in a colourful pattern of triangles giving the model the appearance of representing a three-dimensional colour gradient.
