Discover the beauty of geometry with this beautiful set of the three most interesting Platonic solids: the dodecahedron, the icosahedron, and the octahedron in bright vibrant colors. They inspire - they gives you a sophisticated feeling holding them, seeing them and just having them around. They are both mathematics and art. They look great on desktops, and in workplaces and conference rooms.
Explanation of the Five Platonic Solids:
The Platonic solids are a group of five unique 3D geometric shapes, named after the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, who associated them with the elements of nature. Each solid is defined by identical faces, edges, and angles, making them perfectly symmetrical. There are only five and they are:
Tetrahedron (4 faces) – Representing fire.
Cube (Hexahedron) (6 faces) – Representing earth.
Octahedron (8 faces) – Representing air.
Dodecahedron (12 faces) – Representing the heavens or ether.
