So, I read up a little on geometry and learned that this is an octahedron, a platonic solid associated with the classic element Air as written by Plato's dialogue Timaeus ("There was intuitive justification for these associations: Air is made of the octahedron; its minuscule components are so smooth that one can barely feel it.") It's hard to be certain, but I believe the Octahedron corresponds to Mercury in Kepler's Platonic Solid planetary model (since they were listed in the same place in the orders of planets and polyghedrons), and since Mercury is already associated with Air as well. Do you think we should include that in the Trivia/make a Gemology section?
