Five-interlaced-pentagons.svg‎ (SVG file, nominally 738 × 725 pixels, file size: 2 KB)

[edit] Summary

An ornamental design of five alternately interlaced pentagons (a kind of five-fold counterpart to the three-fold Valknut). No two pentagons are directly interlinked, and any three adjacent pentagons (for example, red, blue and turquoise) are in a Borromean rings configuration, which means that two non-adjacent pentagons will have to be removed in order to free the remaining three.

For other examples of linked structures which contain multiple Borromean rings configurations, see Image:Borromean-cross.png , Image:Borromean-chainmail-tile.png , and Image:Principia Discordia page00043 mandala (Brunnian link).svg .
