The pentagrammic pyramid, or stappy, is a pyramid with a pentagrammic base and 5 triangles as sides.

It is the vertex-first cap of the great icosahedron. A regular great icosahedron can be constructed by attaching two pentagrammic pyramids to the bases of a pentagrammic retroprism.

Two pentagrammic pyramids can be attached at their bases to form a pentagrammic tegum.
