Crown of Cnut the Great

thingiverse

This is a recreation of the crown of Cnut the Great. A Danish king. Probably the most significant Danish king ever. I found a picture of a coin he had made, and thought I'd make "an artists impression" of what it might have looked like. This is made for my size head and I don't see why you could't resize it to fit your child. Cnut Sweynsson (Modern Danish: Knud den Store; Old English: Cnut cyng; Old Norse: Knútr inn ríki died 12 November 1035), known as Cnut the Great or Canute, was King of Denmark, England and Norway; together often referred to as the North Sea Empire. Yet after the deaths of his heirs within a decade of his own, and the Norman conquest of England in 1066, this legacy was lost. He is popularly invoked in the context of the legend of King Canute and the tide, which often misrepresents him as a deluded monarch believing he has supernatural powers, contrary to the original legend which portrays a wise king who rebuked his courtiers for their fawning behaviour.
