 However, the political situation changed before the new crown could be used in the coronation ceremony of Finland's first independent monarch.By the end of 1918, the uncrowned monarch had abdicated and Finland had adopted a new republican constitution.The crown which exists today was made by goldsmith Teuvo Ypyä in the 1990s, based on the original drawings, and is kept in a museum in Kemi where it can be seen today.
