Changes: Ginevra Weasley's wand

Revision as of 03:51, 14 June 2014

The wand of Ginny Weasley is of unknown length, wood and core materials.

History

Like most wizards and witches in Great Britain, she purchased it at the age of eleven before beginning her education at Hogwarts in 1992. From Ollivander's Wand shop.

She has been able to perform powerful magic with her wand, such as casting an unmatchable Bat-Bogey Hex.

The wand's appearance is quite beautiful. It is a shiny jet black colour with spiral one forth the way up the wand and at the end of the spirals there is are lines that intersect another one forth of the way.

Behind the scenes

Ginny's wand in the Harry Potter films, or at least the replica sold at The Making of Harry Potter, measures 14.25 inches. This cannot be considered canon, however, as Pottermore indicates that Garrick Ollivander only sold wands over 14 inches when a "physical peculiarity" required it.

-*As J.K.

Ginny was born August 11, and the period of birth marking Hazel on the Celtic tree calendar is August 5 to September 1.
