text: A Suntiang is an elaborate crown worn normally by Minangkabau women in Sumatra for festive occasions.

A piece worn by a bride for a wedding is called Suntiang Gadang, while the one worn by traditional dancers is called Pasumandan. Suntiang is worn at wedding parties, and is quite heavy, weighing up to 3.5 kilograms. The headpiece's weight is meant to symbolize the burdens that may arise after marriage
