Evolution of wand designs in the Harry Potter universe

Wand design is a key part of the Wizarding World's visual worldbuilding, from the redesigns in  Prisoner of Azkaban to the 1920s wands of Fantastic Beasts . On this page of the Wandmaker's Notebook, we'll look at how the wands have evolved over time, and explore the role artists and prop makers play in this evolution.

Interactive wands from WWoHP aren't original designs, but HYBRIDS of character wands!

When the interactive, park-exclusive wands for Universal Studios: Wizarding World of Harry Potter were revealed, did you get a feeling that they looked familiar? If so, you're absolutely right! Each interactive wand is actually a combination of existing character wands.
