Polygon lamp with diamond

I made this ball to be a decorative lamp. Turned out to be quite nice. The pattern is not like an card stack diamond. It is actually a polygon with 6 edges.Can you see it?

Part is designed and rendered with Fusion 360 and sliced with Simplify3D

Notes:

The walls are not steep so no supports are needed. I printed mine in Octofiber PETG, which is a bit translucent.

The model consists of two parts: the ball and the top diamnod. The diamond will fit in the ball with a little bit of force.

Assembly
