Geometry
- The symmetry group of the tiling is *632 (p6m).
- All the internal angles of the constituent polygons are a multiple of 12°.

- Contains one regular 6-pointed star polygon with vertex angle of 60°.
- There are 6 non-regular reflective tiles (including one dart).
- The tiling satisfies the interlace condition and has one finite interlace and two infinite interlaces with straight cross-overs.
- The tiling is edge-to-edge.
- As drawn, contains about 250 polygons.
