The Golden Crown and other decorations is believe one of the best relic of Shilla dynasty. Needless to say, You will acknowledge it’s beauty and delicacy of Shilla culture as soon as looking at.
Different from Baek Jae, the relics of Shilla was not stollen severely like Baek Jae.
The reason why the relics were not stollen so much was due to the construction style of tomb.
The tombs of Baek Jae had an entrance to the tomb from out side.
If the tomb raider found the entrance, they could steal the relics with easy.
Under the Japanese rule, Japanese had collected the relics from koreans who had stole the relics from the tomb. Relatively Baek Jae Tombs were easy to steal compare to that of Shilla dynasty which didn’t make an entrance of tomb at all.
Now days, Baek Jae relics are very rare even in Museum. Many relics of Baek Jae dynasty were believed to had been smuggled from Korea to Japan.
The relics of Shilla dynasty were not easy to steal due to the structure of tomb construction.
Because of this reason, we could see the golden crown in the National Museum.
If you look at the golden crown with your eyes, you will be surprise on their beauty and delicacy.
It is lucky we could see the perfect crown and decorations.
Needless to say, let’s look at the golden relics first.
In this posting, I’d like to show you mainly the crown and the earrings.
You can see the perfect crown. It looked amazing how this crown could’ve been preserved such a perfect appearance under the ground for a long time.
You can see lots of bended jades on the crown. The bended jade was a symbol of the king’s authority.
The earrings were so delicate. It meant that the gold smithing skill was so excellent in Shilla dynasty.
Let’s look at the earrings more in detail.
I am curious when they put those ear rings on their ear, what would happen on their ear ?
Everything has it’s origin and process. Of course this wonderful relics also must've had it’s own start.
In next posting, I’d like to look at the process for this awesome gold smithing skill.
Thank you for reading.
Absolutely amazing works of art. I love Gold and Silver, in either coinage or artistic forms!
I am still amazed to see the crown in pictures and as you mentioned if we see live the beauty will be much more than the pictures. This is masterpiece and I would like to pay my regards to you for showing such wonferful things.
I agree with you that it's quite impressive.. Nice one
Yes, it's masterpiece, needless to say
Ofcorse it is
This is fanatastic! It is amazing to see gold jewelry as it has been used for thousands of years through the ages to store wealth. I am involved with a company called Menē that manufactors 24 karat gold jewelry that is co designed by Diana Picasso, Pablo Picassos grand daughter. I blog almost exclusively about this here on Steemit. If you are interested, check it out :)

여행보다는 여유를 즐기고 있습니다
Aesthetic brilliance with a historic touch. This is really cool.
Thank you for stopping by
The Shilla Kings really had a brilliant way of ensuring that their ombs won't be raided @slowwalker and now we can marvel the beauty of their relics. Those earrings are so heavy to be worn too.
That is amazing that the crown is in such good shape after all theses years. Do you know when the Japanese took it from the Koreans? When did Korea get it back? I can’t imagine someone actually having it on their head.
that is turely gorgeous. wish i could have something shining like this.
Will their ears become bigger than others as the earings looks So heavy?
Gold has never gone out of style!!

So you mean this treasure could survive that long yet still maintain this state of the art beauty?
This is wonderful trust me , have been hearing of shilla dynasty but have not really read somthing like this about it.
Also i never knew that the bended jade was a symbol of the king’s authority.
Am also amazed in the construction of the tomb , like am wondering how they construct it leaving no entrance at all compared to the Baek Jae tomb. The engineers must have been gods or just too skill. I must visit this museum someday in my life.
thanks @slowwalker for the insight God bless and more knowledge.

Beautiful crown and beautiful way to work gold. You can see that they were delicately carved. I am struck by the color of that gold, it is a strong yellow.

Ini memang sangat menarik untuk dikunjungi wisatawan melihat tentang sejarah singkat zaman dahulu peninggalan dinasti.
Aceh juga memiliki prasejarah.
Saya akan mengikuti anda tentang sejarah yang sangat penting untuk selanjutnya.
Terimakasih atas berita yang berharga ini.
@slowwalker
It is fortunate that the tomb was constructed so that the tomb raiders could not easily steal these wonderful relics. For then we would not be admiring it's radiant beauty right now.
Thanks for sharing these awesome photos
