Hi Liam,
Thanks for the link, but what I really wanted was a solid glass
dodecahedron. I am am talking to another poster, Robert Aurelius, about
this.

Sounds like bribery to me :)

On the subject of daughters: a year or so ago my daughter gave a lamp (mass
produced) made of blue leaded (actually "plasticked") glass in the shape of
a small stellated dodecahedron. I like it a lot.
