Dual polyhedron
In geometry, polyhedra are associated into pairs called duals, where the vertices of one correspond to the faces of the other. The dual of the dual is the original polyhedron. The dual of a polyhedron with equivalent vertices is one with equivalent faces, and of one with equivalent edges is another...

 of the uniform small stellated truncated dodecahedron. The decagrammic faces pass close to the origin in the uniform polyhedron, causing this dual to be very spikey.
