Modular Sonobe Origami Ball - blue, geen, yellow - 270 pieces

Modular Sonobe Origami Ball in blue, green, and yellow.

 

Made from 270 sheets of 9cm x 9cm semi-stiff paper.

There are 4 different shades of each base color (b, g, y).

Each unit is handmade by me =)

 

Diameter/Height - 9.5" (24.1cm) to 10.5" (26.6cm)

Circumference - 31"(78.7cm) at narrowest to 34" (86.4cm) at widest

Geometrically, this model is not a perfect sphere, but it is structured on a pattern of pentagons and hexagons (similar to that seen on a soccer ball).

 

There is no glue or tape needed or used in the construction of this model.

 

[If you are crazy (and kind) enough to want to buy this piece, please contact me. It can definitely be custom made in any colours or sizes.]
