Please notice the "jade hooks" hanging as a decoration.
I believe these "jade hooks" were imported from Japan's indigenous populations (related to Jomon-Ainu culture).

I always thought that Goguryeo crowns were made of gilt bronze :g:

This site has some Goguryeo related pictures. No crowns in there but may be of interest;

I've been looking around and I"m pretty convinced now that it's of Shilla origin.

North Korean? The ONLY North Korean website is this...

:P Well, not really, but you get my idea...
All characters and events in the above post -- even those based on real people -- are entirely fictional, and as such, should not be taken seriously, except in a fictional way. All facts are fabricated... poorly. This post contains extreme neo-contraantidisestablishmentarian political ideas and due to its contents it should not be viewed by anyone. The author is not responsible for any emotional stress, physical harm, international tensions or global thermonuclear war that may result from viewing this post.

It is a Unified Silla crown. Can't trust the North Koreans to be accurate w/that kinda stuff.
