wizard hats

Conical sorcerer headwear

Wizard hats are the tall, conical, often brimmed hats associated with wizards, witches, and magicians in folklore and fantasy.

Usually depicted in deep blue or black with stars and moons, they've become iconic through characters like Merlin and Gandalf.

The style overlaps with stereotypical witch hats, distinguished mainly by context and color: He grabbed his wizard hat for the costume party.
