Faerybeads Merkaba
Faerybeads Merkaba or Stella Octangula
"The stellated octahedron is the only stellation of the octahedron. It was depicted by Leonardo da Vinci in Pacioli's book 'De Divina Proportione' in 1509 who called it 'Octaedron Elevatum'. A hundred years later it was named 'Stella Octangula' by Johannes Kepler." (Source: Matematicas Visuales)
The Stella Octangula is sometimes known as the Merkaba and imbued with mystic properties.

That is an amazing bead! I have been looking for a bead like this for ages; I nearly bought a pendant in this design to modify for use as a bead. Thank you for coming up with this design.
