The huge contrast of fashion.. Modern in fantastic beasts (teachers at hogwards) And old fashioned and traditional (same teachers at hogwards 50 years later)
Aside from Ollivander and Gregorovitch, I wasn’t really familiar with all these other wandmakers. Regardless, it’s still interesting to learn about them. 4:43 Yeah, that one made me do a double take.
Thank you for giving us a really fun overview of the Wand Makers. I didn't even know about half the people mentioned so it was fun to learn that there were so many.
Whenever I reread the Harry Potter series I think of my personal "fan fiction" which ever since I first read the series I thought of with a few tweaks over the years. Anyway in that "fan fiction" I came up with a wand maker who also had a unique crafting process, you could get multi-core wands and even use other materials for the outside. In the story I have a Dragonbone Wand with a multi-core of Werewolf Fur, Griffin Feather, and Unicorn Hair twining those together. The process the maker uses is brings out individual samples of the various materials and sees if they react to your presence then selects those exact materials and crafts your personal wand, it could take up to a week to craft the wand initially then another week if you purchase the service, customizing the appearance for you. He also crafted magical staffs in a similar way.
@@morrigankasa570 Seems like you'd have a conflicted wand as those three species do not get along with each other. It would be an excellent mind experiment though just to try. Could be a good story maker and possible Deus 'ex Machina' storyline.
@@MountainFisher Maybe some conflict but I think of it as balanced. Werewolves are fierce, strong, and fighters. While Unicorns likely flee from conflict still strong but gentle. Then Griffins are proud, fierce when threatened, yet can be peaceful when tamed/trust you. So those things all balance each other and the Dragonbone helps contain the power because Dragons are extremely powerful and difficult to tame/control yet can keep the population of other creatures under control.
Oooow more wands videos❣ Would you do a video on what if Wormtail was killed in his rat form by Crooks Shanks in Prisoner of Azkaban how this would have changed the over all story of Harry Potter?
Personally I think it just would've delayed Voldys return, before peter there was Professor Qureil (I cant remember how spell his name) afterall, there would've been more
@@berserkworkentertainment I agree. Voldemort would've still came back it just probably wouldn't have happened until Order Of The Phoenix. Possibly right before they went to the ministry in my opinion. However, it would still make for an interesting theory. I'm down to hear it.
@@reductostupefy you think that soon?? I was thinking more towards the faithful deatheaters when they got out of azkaban, but it would be possible. I would like to see how the plot would go, maybe snape lives😌🤣
Since Crookshanks was helping Sirius, he'd probably bring the body to him and then Sirius would be able to prove his innocence. Not sure if he'd live longer in this version of events, but his remaining time would definitely be more pleasant.
I don’t know where you get all your information from but I never fail to be amazed at the breadth and details that you manage to pass on to us! I didn’t notice any information regarding the Beaubattens school and where the lovely vela ladies get their wands from?
Most of the students of Beauxbatons aren't Veela, but Fleur's wand was likely custom-made, since it used her grandmother's hair as a core. The video DID mention French wandmaker Cosme Acajor for one.
Hey Harry Potter Theory! I was wondering the following : In fantastic beasts we can see Dumbledore as well as McGonagall dress pretty modern for the time being. In contrast to that they're choosing kind of old fashioned and traditional pieces in the 90s. This also applies to other teaching characters of less reputation within the genre. Do you have a theory on that, maybe being worth a video? (if you didn't adress this already of course!) See you around :)
In Hogwarts legacy the student uniform is a pretty typical clothing for the time. I feel like the wizarding world withdrew a lot from muggle influence in the 20th century.
It’s the error made by the custom department for the Fantastic Beast films. Too lazy to pay attention to details of the wizarding world from the original source materials
Wonder if any dark wizards ever used the bone of a pure blood human wizard as a wand core. Or the bone of a house elf. I bet house elf wands would do some weird things. Like allow you to apperate in areas where it’s charmed against.
Interesting, I did those things as well. I was sorted into Gryffindor House, my Patronus was a Shark, and my wand is Blackthorn with Dragon Heartstring.
i actually hope that the new game gives an option of just loading your pottermore account. just as an option because playing through the game more than once with different options should also be possible. would be fun to play through as a ravenclaw with my calico patronus and perhaps even as a cat animagus, but i also wouldn't want to be locked to that indefinitely if i start the game again.
Would use wood like Cocobolo or Tulipwood from a bush plant similar to Manzanita in Calif. Phoenixes are a worldwide bird so there's that. In another video he talked about wizards in Japan only using Cherry wood, but I forgot the core.
Ovillander's family must be very very rich. I mean, almost all Hogwart students buy their wand from him and do you know HOW MANY students are there in Hogwarts?
alchemical metal wand with dual core (chimera + manticore) why metal? cause probably wood would fall apart due to the extremely obscene violent nature of those cores
Can someone explain to me how old Gregorovitch is? Because he was an accomplished wand maker when Grindewald as a young man stole the Elder Wand. So he had to be older than Dumbledore.
I've been wondering about popular modern "sustainable" materials in wand making. Or repurposed wood. I love wand lore and one of the things is that not all wood from all species of trees works. I would imagine : Beech, pine, bamboo, walnut and oak would be common and easily accessed woods in today's world. Also, if materials could be added for magic enhancements, like was the mother of pearl inlay an added bit of magical compound or was it just pretty?
Video idea for you to do: What additional effects do spells have that are not seen in the movies? For instance, what else can the patronus charm do besides ward off dementors?
Whoa whoa! Whoa! We will though if people knew that Salazar slitherings wand was made out of a basilisk fang then when it be like suspect to have a hidden chamber be like in the school and not expect it to be a basilisk because where would you've gotten it?
Another wandmaker is from a fan-made Australian wizarding community. Near *Kurrajong School of Thaumaturgy* is *Bruce “Bunyip” Bundy’s Wand Shoppe,* where he makes a wand unique to the Land Down Under.
🪄Boomawands, are bent like primitive boomerangs, having a magical core. They can be wielded as either. Throw the wand at an opponent and it twirls away, affects the spell you sent as it gets within range of the opponent, and magically returns to your hand. When not in use, it shrinks into a charm smaller than your pinky, to be worn on a necklace, bracelet, keychain, or clipped to a belt loop, zipper, buttonhole, etc. 🪄Bundy's Wand Shoppe is a large, airy room with rows of wide, flat drawers, holding unclaimed boomawands. Bruce takes a few measurements, asks a few questions, and selects a few wands he thinks might suit you. You are led out the back door into an open field. Bruce shows you how to hold the weapon and encourages you to give it a toss. ✈Some may drop from your hand like a lead stick. Others may fly off and not come back for hours. Now and then a boomawand will swirl around, coming back to the thrower and bonking you in the head! A rare few times the thrower has been knocked out cold! ✈Then there is that perfect matching when the wand flies away, describing a perfect twirling arc through the air, and comes back to nestle in its new owner's hands. 🦘Wand cores in Australia are often locally sourced and rarely cause any permanent damage to the creature. No dragon heartstrings here! "Hairs & scales from noses to tails… and other stuff here & there." 🐨Bruce “Bunyip” Bundy uses these items inside his boomerang-shaped wands: Acromantula hair, Augurey tail feather, Billywig stinger, Bunyip scale, Dropbear ear hair, Erumpent tail hair, Graphorn toenail, Griffin tail hair, Hippogriff tail hair, Kneazle whisker, Opaleye scale, Ramora scale, Tasmanian Devil whisker, Weta feeler, & Yowie hair.
Then is the "Wand chooses the caster" exclusively a Ollivander thing? Like during the wand making process he adds an enchantment or charm to make the wands seek out their "rightful" owner, or something like that, since Ollivander was the one who started that trend. Then it's possible that a wand not created by Ollivander isn't as "picky" about their owners, and since Ollivander doesn't have a monopoly on wandmaking, then the "wand chooses the caster" is more of a widely accepted "public opinion" and not actual truth within the Potter Universe?
Ollivander claiming that his wands are the best is the equivalent of Apple claiming they are the best. It has to do with a strong marketing campaign. You can produce an inferior product , but if you say it is the best, you will convince enough people of that. I'm sure the Ollivanders produced fine wands, but superior to the rest? Consider the source.
I would like to talk about the Wizarding schools, specifically smaller, more local schools. What if places like Australia, Texas and Alaska had their own schools?
Remember Hogwarts has a fund for students like that and in the Pensive Dumbledore gave Tom Riddle a small moneybag of coins from that fund. Most of that probably went to the wand and the rest of his school supplies where mostly used. Likely every year got another small sack of coins for supplies.
I have a theory that all wands start as a stick in appearance and over time they morph based on what kind of magic and personality the user has, it explains why voldemorts wand looks like a villains wand. I would love your thoughts
The wands in the first 2 films were really simple and plain looking because they showed JK Rowling a bunch of different samples of how the wands would look and she chose the plainest ones. Alfonso Cuaron the director of the third film decided the wands were boring and had them redesigned to show more personality and individualism. As far as why the DE wands are so evil looking I think it’s simply a case of the color coded for your convenience trope, I don’t think it’s any deeper than that.
I see, but do any of them use Kyber Crystals in their sticks as cores? Anyways, to all those boarding Olton Hall for the first time in the next week, have fun, and don’t forget to use the Force for all you toad finding needs. Enjoy the Chocolate Frogs! Bye!
Serafina Pekkala Queen of the Lake Enara clan from the books His Dark Materials. The names are too similar. I found Serafina Pekkala to be a far more believable and rounded character than Seraphina Picquery
I wasn't aware that there were that many wand makers in the US. Does this imply that wand usage was as common among Ilvermorny students as Hogwarts students?
Thank you for making this video. I will use it for my wizarding themed camp next year. This year I made them a wand lore book and talked about the 4+ American wand makers that they could choose to get their wands from. Some students this year chose Isolt as their wand maker so I was glad you added her name to the list of wand makers, even though she made them for her family and never sold them to the public.
Dumbledore and Grindelwald made a blood pact; swearing not to fight each other. Why did they not make an Unbreakable Vow if they were really that close?
@@hb2dixon But most witches and wizards can't do very controlled or powerful magic reliably without a wand. Can wandless magic defend a witch or wizard whilst they are outnumbered with heavily armed muggles?
Olivander's wands are known best because he had one off the first shops. And they're probably the most expensive ones. So how the hell did all the Weasley's got a wand from Olivander? If they have to buy second hand books qnd clothing, then I woulf think they have to buy a wand from someone else...
Just thinking how American wizards call them no mages sounds so corporate. Muggle sounds like slang. I wonder if normal everyday wizards with European/British ancestors call them muggles still.
After watching this I wish making your own wand was part of Hogwarts legacy that would have been a cool thing to add for making beasts more useful and being able to build wands for certain play styles and them be something you replace and upgrade over time as you get access to new cores and materials. You could probably add growing small trees into the room of requirement as part of herbology as well.
That would be cool, but I seriously doubt a fifth year Hogwarts student is able to make wands when there aren't many wandmakers in the Harry Potter universe.
@@SoraRaida there was a time where it was common for wizards to make their own wands why would it be unrealistic for a a student of magic to learn and experiment with their conduit to magic. comparing it ot real school would be like comparing it to woodshop class as an ellective
"Vast wizzarding world" ...well, it is not actually that vast. If we consider that there are about 10 pupils in one house for every year at hogwarts this means that there are 280 pupils at Hogwarts (I know, suprisingly few to inherite such a large castle). I know this is only a rough estimate, but it brings the point across. If we now consider that Wizzard on average reach an age of 150 and multiply that by the 40 pupils every year, we can estimate that there are around 6000 Wizzards in Britain at any point in time. So the wizzarding world is not that vast. Fun fact, this means that more than 94000 wizzards would have had to visit England from other countries to visit the Quidditch world cup, which is rather ridiculous.
I wish we could've known more about Gregorivich. I only have a lot of knowledge on Olivander and I know that Crum got his wand from the Gregorivich. Other than that I'm not too sure. I'm still new to all of my Harry Potter fandom, lol. So I probably missed it somewhere along the way.
I mean, I’ve apart of the fandom since I was 7 (I’m 15) and apart from Ollivander I’m still not well versed in wand-lore and the wand makers! You certainly are not alone :)
@@oockeshoek1122, that's right. Nobody is perfect, but some are SO much better than most others, like Olivander. 🙂 I can drive a car, but I could never do what a racecar driver does!
I lost a wand My first in a sparring match in which a wizard named Bryce cast a spell and illegally interfered the result of said interference sent a surge into the energy produced by our wands destroying both wands that killed the wizard I was sparring with and my wand was destroyed.
WHERE WOULD PARENTS OF YOUNG WITCHES+WIZZARDS SEND THEM TO LEARN IF THEY R FROM COUNTRIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST INCLUDING ISRAEL ,TAKING THINGS INTO CONSIDERATION+WHERE WOULD THEY GET WANDS?
According TO MY KNOWLEDGE NOT ALL THAT MANY COUNTRIES R PREPARED TO ACCEPT ISRAELI PEOPLE /CHILDREN OF IN THEIR SCHOOLS/UNIVERSITIES+ MOST MIDDLE EASTERN COUNTRIES DON'T LIKE ISRAELI PEOPLE ,FOR EXAMPLE SOUDIARABIA ,IRAN+IRAQ SO WHAT SCHOOL COULD THEY SEND THEM TO?
@@gabinathan5499, the Wizarding World is not as bound by muggle national borders. That's one of the nice things about fantasy worlds. 😀 If there's a Jewish child with magical abilities I know they'd be welcomed at Ilvermorny and Kurrajong to name 2.
@@primmoore6232 GOOD TO KNOW. HOW WOULD THEY B ABLE TO GET FROM ISRAEL TO THE SCHOOLS/HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS . HOW WOULD THEY ARRANGE THE HOLIDAYS TO SUIT EVERY 1 ALSO SOME JEWISH PEOPLE R EXTREMELY RELIGIOUS +NEED/WANT WHAT IS CALLED KOSHER FOOD HOW WOULD THE SCHOOLS MANAGE WITH THEESE SITUATIONS?
I keep kosher, so I know that wouldn't be a problem. As for how they'd travel, same as everyone else: *BY MAGIC!* To be real, though, devout Jews believe practicing magic is evil, so it's not even a consideration.
I wonder if there are any wand makers for the other wizarding schools - although we do know that the students of ouagadou (can’t remember how to spell it 😂) use wandless magic But maybe in South America and Eastern Asia ??
*Uagadou* - pretty good spelling without looking it up! In *Australia,* Kurrajong School has a nearby wand shop. I posted the details of Bundy's Wand shoppe in a separate comment.
It's pronounced rug-ah-rou I know that's not how it's spelled rougarou but that's how we say it,,,lol I would like to hear you say this street name Tchoupitoulas
@@primmoore6232 First obtaining your wood offer honey to the botruckles while you can offer a growth potion for the tree. Going out after a storm is best because the tree will have shed wood to make the body of your wand. Next you need a very volitile time sensetive component the core. while sugar works very well for an Abraxxon or unicorn Raw meat works for Thestrals, hippogryphs , and thunderBirds. Then you must get to work and make your wand quickly as the core will degrade. some may melt like butter in a hot pan but other cores can explode like a nuke! Even if everything goes right I've seen it go very wrong may student's died while I was there. because of wand or core failure. during testing. It was good and went right in assembly of the wand but the core was degraded, and went off sending shards of wood into the would be wand maker . Only a lucky few succeeded.
@@patriley547 😲 Wandmaking is not for beginners! I'll stick to the wild creatures Australia for cores. Sometimes a billywig will get loose, or a drop bear will have a tantrum, though. It's comes with the craft!
Thanks for watching folks! Which video next? Leave a comment down below!
Apologies for asking, have you made a video about the significant others of the Hogwarts' founders? We know that Rowena and Salazar had children.

I always wondered what would happen if you used two cores from compatible animals like a Unicorn and Thestral.

Serafina Pekkala Queen of the Lake Enara clan from the books His Dark Materials. The names are too similar. I found Serafina Pekkala to be a far more believable and rounded character than Seraphina Picquery
I wasn't aware that there were that many wand makers in the US. Does this imply that wand usage was as common among Ilvermorny students as Hogwarts students?
definitely would want one made by wolff
What about unicorn and phoenix is that even possible?
Ollivanders wand's have a Dragon heartstring, unicorn hair or a phoenix feather core. So yes possible.
Thank you for making this video. I will use it for my wizarding themed camp next year. This year I made them a wand lore book and talked about the 4+ American wand makers that they could choose to get their wands from. Some students this year chose Isolt as their wand maker so I was glad you added her name to the list of wand makers, even though she made them for her family and never sold them to the public.
Dumbledore and Grindelwald made a blood pact; swearing not to fight each other. Why did they not make an Unbreakable Vow if they were really that close?
One possibility: making that Vow requires a witness. I don't think those two wanted anyone else knowing about it.
So in a wizard vs muggle war, the muggles could win in the long term by just assassinating 13 people and their apprentices...
@@hb2dixon But most witches and wizards can't do very controlled or powerful magic reliably without a wand. Can wandless magic defend a witch or wizard whilst they are outnumbered with heavily armed muggles?
Why wasn't Percy Weasley a Slytherin, given his pride & ambition towards his career? What made him a Gryffindor?
Tradition! LOL
Olivander's wands are known best because he had one off the first shops. And they're probably the most expensive ones. So how the hell did all the Weasley's got a wand from Olivander? If they have to buy second hand books qnd clothing, then I woulf think they have to buy a wand from someone else...
Just thinking how American wizards call them no mages sounds so corporate. Muggle sounds like slang. I wonder if normal everyday wizards with European/British ancestors call them muggles still.
Didn't know there was that many.
Honestly I didn't know that we knew the names of the other wandmakers, besides Gregorovitch.
After watching this I wish making your own wand was part of Hogwarts legacy that would have been a cool thing to add for making beasts more useful and being able to build wands for certain play styles and them be something you replace and upgrade over time as you get access to new cores and materials. You could probably add growing small trees into the room of requirement as part of herbology as well.
That would be cool, but I seriously doubt a fifth year Hogwarts student is able to make wands when there aren't many wandmakers in the Harry Potter universe.
@@SoraRaida there was a time where it was common for wizards to make their own wands why would it be unrealistic for a a student of magic to learn and experiment with their conduit to magic. comparing it ot real school would be like comparing it to woodshop class as an ellective
Antioc Peverell didn't make the Elder Wand. According to lore, death made it at Peverell's request. Just saying.
"Vast wizzarding world"
...well, it is not actually that vast. If we consider that there are about 10 pupils in one house for every year at hogwarts this means that there are 280 pupils at Hogwarts (I know, suprisingly few to inherite such a large castle). I know this is only a rough estimate, but it brings the point across. If we now consider that Wizzard on average reach an age of 150 and multiply that by the 40 pupils every year, we can estimate that there are around 6000 Wizzards in Britain at any point in time. So the wizzarding world is not that vast.
Fun fact, this means that more than 94000 wizzards would have had to visit England from other countries to visit the Quidditch world cup, which is rather ridiculous.
I bet you're a lot of fun to be around...😆
Someone has too much time on their hands 𓆏
It’s vast
I hope Hogwarts Legacy has personality quizzes that chooses your Wand, Patronus and House.
I wish we could've known more about Gregorivich. I only have a lot of knowledge on Olivander and I know that Crum got his wand from the Gregorivich. Other than that I'm not too sure. I'm still new to all of my Harry Potter fandom, lol. So I probably missed it somewhere along the way.
I mean, I’ve apart of the fandom since I was 7 (I’m 15) and apart from Ollivander I’m still not well versed in wand-lore and the wand makers!
You certainly are not alone :)
I might be related to Diego Quintana 😂
What if Draco broke Harry’s wand instead of his nose.
It's pronounced roo- gah- roo
This is fascinating though!

why can wizards not make there own wands, so that they know if the wand fits there identiteit
Why can muggles not make their own clothes, so they fit their form and fashion sense?
@@primmoore6232 i understand, nobody is perfect in making things are they??
@@oockeshoek1122, that's right. Nobody is perfect, but some are SO much better than most others, like Olivander. 🙂
I can drive a car, but I could never do what a racecar driver does!
I lost a wand My first in a sparring match in which a wizard named Bryce cast a spell and illegally interfered the result of said interference sent a surge into the energy produced by our wands destroying both wands that killed the wizard I was sparring with and my wand was destroyed.
Nerds I love Harry Potter and witches and wizards
But... then who makes all those plastic wands in the ASMR videos then?

@@gabinathan5499, the Wizarding World is not as bound by muggle national borders. That's one of the nice things about fantasy worlds. 😀

I keep kosher, so I know that wouldn't be a problem. As for how they'd travel, same as everyone else: *BY MAGIC!*
To be real, though, devout Jews believe practicing magic is evil, so it's not even a consideration.
I wonder if there are any wand makers for the other wizarding schools - although we do know that the students of ouagadou (can’t remember how to spell it 😂) use wandless magic
But maybe in South America and Eastern Asia ??
*Uagadou* - pretty good spelling without looking it up! In *Australia,* Kurrajong School has a nearby wand shop. I posted the details of Bundy's Wand shoppe in a separate comment.
😍
It's pronounced rug-ah-rou I know that's not how it's spelled rougarou but that's how we say it,,,lol I would like to hear you say this street name Tchoupitoulas
The Texas school teaches wand making.
Do tell us more! Any special ingredients?
@@primmoore6232 First obtaining your wood offer honey to the botruckles while you can offer a growth potion for the tree. Going out after a storm is best because the tree will have shed wood to make the body of your wand.
Next you need a very volitile time sensetive component the core. while sugar works very well for an Abraxxon or unicorn Raw meat works for Thestrals, hippogryphs , and thunderBirds.
Then you must get to work and make your wand quickly as the core will degrade. some may melt like butter in a hot pan but other cores can explode like a nuke!
Even if everything goes right I've seen it go very wrong may student's died while I was there. because of wand or core failure. during testing. It was good and went right in assembly of the wand but the core was degraded, and went off sending shards of wood into the would be wand maker . Only a lucky few succeeded.
@@patriley547 😲 Wandmaking is not for beginners! I'll stick to the wild creatures Australia for cores. Sometimes a billywig will get loose, or a drop bear will have a tantrum, though. It's comes with the craft!
@@primmoore6232 the best woods and cores are local.
@@primmoore6232 Exactly. The local supplies are the best.
It bugs me so much the way rougarou is pronounced lol
🥰😍😍😍
what if voldemort got the infinity stones
Replace the word "wand" with "pp" in this video and see if it brings a whole new context.
