The pentagrammic rotunda is an orbiform polyhedron. It consists of 5+5 triangles, 1+5 pentagrams, and 1 decagram.

It can be constructed by cutting a great icosidodecahedron in half along one of its decagrammic circles of edges. This produces two pentagrammic rotundas with the bases in opposite orientation.
