All the trophies in Valheim can be mounted on the walls using Item Stands. To do this, assign the trophies to any of the numbered slot in your inventory, point to the Item Stand until a text appears, then press the corresponding number your trophy is assigned to!

Take note, you may also mount boss trophies for the ultimate flex!
