pointy hat

Wizard's signature cap

A pointy hat is any hat that tapers to a point at the top.

The shape appears across contexts—wizard costumes, witch outfits, dunce caps, and traditional conical hats from various cultures.

In fantasy settings, the pointy hat marks its wearer as magical: Every wizard needs a proper pointy hat.
