As most of you know I research and record information about the history of 
paperfolding.

I am wondering if anyone has any information about the history or origin of 
Chinese Lucky Stars?

I have not managed to find the design in any published books or even articles 
... though, of course, such publications may exist. If you know of any, please 
let me know.

The pentagonal knot from which these stars are developed is, of course, of some 
age. What I know about this design, in both Japan and Western Europe, is 
recorded on my page http://www.origamiheaven.com/historyofthepentagonalknot.htm

I would be very grateful for any new information that anyone can offer me.

Thanks

Dave
