A Novelty helmet mounted with wings in the popular imagined style of the ‘Viking helmet’ — worth being upfront that this has no basis in the Viking Age archaeological record.
It’s worth being upfront about the history here too: like the horned helmet, the winged Viking helmet has no basis in the archaeological record — no genuine Viking Age helmet with wings has ever been found, and the image owes far more to 19th and 20th century popular art, opera costuming, and modern fantasy media than to anything an actual Norse warrior wore into battle. Wings mounted on a helmet would have been just as impractical at close quarters as horns, offering no protective value while adding an easy target and handhold.
