Vajracarya priest's crown
The Vajracarya priest's crown has a brown base color. The crown's shape resembles a dome with a narrow top that widens towards the base. A small, rounded finial sits atop the crown. The surface features intricate gold-colored metalwork. Multiple small, raised figures of people are arranged around the crown. These figures are positioned within ornate, teardrop-shaped frames. The frames have curved borders adorned with patterns. The crown's lower edge has a decorative band with a repeating pattern. A thin metal rod protrudes from the bottom, likely a display stand. The background is a plain gray color.
