Harry Potter - Ronald Weasley's first wand - Replica - (Geek Gear Discount Crate)

A wand (sometimes magic wand) is a thin, hand-held stick or rod made of wood, stone, ivory, or metals like gold or silver. Generally, in modern language, wands are ceremonial and/or have associations with magic but there have been other uses, all stemming from the original meaning as a synonym of rod and virge, both of which had a similar development. A stick giving length and leverage is perhaps the earliest and simplest of tools. Long versions of the magic wand are usually styled in forms of staves or sceptres, often with designs or an orb of a gemstone forged on the top.


------------------------------

Ronald Weasley's first wand was 12", made of ash, and had a coreof unicorn hair that stuck out at the end of the wand. It originally belonged to his older brother Charlie.
This wand originally belonged to Ron's older brother Charlie Weasley. It was most likely purchased from Ollivander's sometime before Charlie's education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It was most likely given to Ron as a means of saving money, as the Weasley family was quite poor. This wand snapped in half on 1 September 1992 from a run-in with the Whomping Willow.
During Ron's second year at Hogwarts, it barely held together by a strand of the wood. Ronald attempted to hold it together using Spello-tape, but its magical capabilities were damaged beyond repair. It subsequently started malfunctioning; Ron refused to request his parents to buy a new one then due to fearing that he would receive another Howler from his mother for being irresponsible.
