stellated
Having pointed projections
Stellated describes a shape that has been extended outward to form points like a star.
In geometry, a stellated polyhedron is created by extending the faces or edges of a regular solid until they meet, producing a star-like form: a stellated dodecahedron, a stellated octahedron.
The term appears in mathematics, design, and decorative arts where pointed, radiating structures occur.
