A Klemperer Rosette is several bodies of effectively equal mass locked into equivalent but rotated orbits about either a central body, or the center of mass of the system.
So, for instance, if you took five more Earths and placed them every 60 degrees around the sun, they would be very stable, and you'd have a Rosette.
