    Star of Lakshmi

    Star of Lakshmi
    An eight-pointed star design often used in architecture, particularly as a tiling or other decoration on the floor of a room that has four- or eight-fold symmetry. A notable example is in the octagonal central lobby in the Houses of Parliament in London. It was used by Hindus to symbolize Ashtalakshmi, the eight forms of wealth.
