It came from a Harry Potter Lego Advent Calendar. My kids didn’t build them right away, and squirrelled them away until recently.
Damn thing drew blood.

Ah yes, the 39262 minifigure crown, also used as a flower.
Just some weeks ago, I talked with a friend about how in every Post about Lego, someone just fucking steps into the comments and knows the exact ID of some obscure piece or set shown.
And now I see your comment 👏
In this case, I knew it because of a “botanicals” set that I assembled recently.
Those sets use a lot of pieces in creative ways, often in unusual colors. In particularly obscure cases, like this crown or the rose petals that were originally from a car fender, the manual will include a brief trivia callout.
I remembered the callout, and that was enough to find it by keyword on the fan database sites.
I think it’s almost a matter of reverse engineering the info.
OP said the set.

Also used as a caltrop too apparently.
Can I buy a bag of these to deter alley cats from using the fire escape as a highway?
