The wand of James Potter was 11" mahogany; its core is unknown. It was purchased at Ollivander's Wand Shop by James before he began his education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The wand was described as "pliable" and as "good for Transfiguration" by Ollivander.[1]
That wand would later prove useful for Transfiguration, because in his fifth year, James Potter became an accomplished Animagus.
However, on the infamous 31 October, 1981 night, James had been using his wand to entertain his infant son Harry and had left it on the couch when Lord Voldemort arrived.
