During the Qing Dynasty, Manchu people added a lot of Han crown culture on the basis of Manchu costumes, and had a unique crown style. The crown, male or female, is round as a whole and made of mink. There are three golden phoenix in the queen's crown, and the top of the rockhopper is inlaid with Oriental Pearl. Although the shape is very different from previous dynasties, it still looks very expensive.
