This plastic model is in roughly the shape of a torus. All the faces are triangles. Twelve are turquoise and twelve white, with the colors alternating. The surface has thirty-six edges and twelve vertices. This would give an Euler characteristic of vertices – edges + faces = 12 – 36 + 24 = 0, which is appropriate for a surface with one hole. Four of the white triangles are numbered. Face 1 also has a tag that reads: 739. Another tag on this side reads: A. Harry Wheeler. Another mark on this side reads: MP. Face 2 is a congruent white triangle on the lower left side, face 3 is a white triangle on the bottom of the back, and face 4 is a triangle on the bottom of the right side.
