What you seeA chart of four circular details, each centred on a star rosette with six, eight, ten and twelve points, drawn in lapis line with the central stars in terracotta.

What it meansGeometric patterns are often classed by the symmetry of their main stars. Six-fold and eight-fold designs sit on square and hexagonal grids, while ten- and twelve-fold stars need more elaborate underlying tilings.

Where it worksWorks well in a study, a classroom or a pair with another geometry plate.
