---|---|
Type | Uniform compound |
Index | UC45 |
Polyhedra | 12 pentagrammic antiprisms |
Faces | 120 triangles, 24 pentagrams |
Edges | 240 |

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.
