Octahedron Platonic Solid Bronze Pendant with Chain

In three-dimensional space, a Platonic solid is a regular, convex polyhedron consisting of congruent regular polygonal faces with the same number of faces meeting at every vertex. Five solids meet those criteria, and each is named after its number of faces. These include the tetrahedron, octahedron, hexahedron (cube), icosahedron, and dodecahedron. A regular octahedron is a polyhedron with eight equilateral triangle flat faces. Geometers have studied the mathematical beauty and symmetry of the Platonic solids since ancient times. They are named for the ancient Greek philosopher Plato who theorized that the classical elements (earth, air, fire, and water) were made of these regular solids. The Octahedron represents the element of air and is linked to the heart chakra. The shape is also symmetrical, a perfect reflection of itself, which is a good reminder of the holographic nature of the universe. The necklace is made from bronze, an ancient alloy of copper and tin, using the 5,000 year
