Shripech (Nepali: श्रीपेच) is a crown that was traditionally worn by Nepalese monarchs.[2][3] During the Rana rule, a special variant of the shripech was created for them to wear.
The Shripech is currently located at the Narayanhiti Palace Museum since 2018.[4] It consists of over 3,000 precious stones, including 723 diamonds, 2,372 pearls, 48 emeralds and 16 rubies.[5]
