According to Hagrid, there ain’t no place better, and if I’m honest, that’s more than likely the same view for anyone looking to acquire a wand. Ollivanders is almost part of the furniture it’s been around so long, existing for more than 2000 years. There’s nothing I love more than making a video on an extremely interesting topic and for me, Ollivanders would be very close to the top when it comes to interesting discussion topics from the wizarding world. In today’s video. I’m going to take you through the entire history of Ollivanders, how they’ve operated throughout the years, their wand making techniques and we’ll even talk about a few of the Ollivanders of past generations including the current one still there today, Garrick. So with that being said, welcome back to the world of Harry Potter, please enjoy today’s video on the complete history of Ollivanders.

Interesting that the golden trio each had a different core in their wand. Hermione was dragon heartstring, Ron was unicorn hair, and Harry was, of course, phoenix feather. If I'm remembering correctly. If you think about it, their cores really suit them.
I wonder if when Ollivander gave Tom Riddle his wand he said "You will do great things. Terrible, yes but great."
Imagine
😂
I don’t know about you but I feel like a wand is the best souvenir you could ever get in the Wizarding world
Good vid and keep up the good work
CJ Depano a Wand, Hot Butter beer in the cold winter, and a few Honydukes sweets and were GOOD! 🔥😂
i’m kinda mad that i lost my wand. i misplaced it about a year ago and haven’t seen it since. also i completely cleaned out my room
WHITE HOT don’t forget the stock of zonkos and weasleys wizard wheezes merch. That would be amazing
I love my wand. I opted to get snapes wand and I really love it.
I honestly wonder if he's experimented with other cores. Like, acromantula leg hair, centaur hair or things from Hagrid's short-lived blast-ended skrewts 🤔 Y'know, just for the heck of it
I'm sure he did I mean how else would he know the 3 cores he uses are the best?
Yeah, but think about it: Very few other creatures are as inherently powerful and magical as dragons, unicorns, and phoenixes. (Phoenices?) A high quality wand needs a high quality core. Would you want a wand with a flobberworm core?
PhilBagels but the wand chooses the wizard so it could be the rarest thing in the world if it doesn’t match it’s not for you
could be
It would be interesting if he has experimented using hair or feathers from the mythical winged horse Pegasus.. or even feathers from a Thunderbird. Bet they'd make powerful cores...
The ollivander wands could have started in Rome then moved over to England.
That's my thinking, too: the business was *founded* elsewhere in 382 BCE, but moved to Britain at a later date.
I think she meant 382 AD. Magnus Maximus was beating the Scots that year, and is much more logical as a point in historical background for Olivander.
@@rustydaboyrobot 382 BC is so long ago I'm somewhat surprised the wand even existed yet.
@@GordieKat why wouldn't they? 382 BC is like 400 years after the foundation of Rome, which was a very developed civilization, way ahead of it's time. Roman technologies were somewhat better than 1500s technologies. Even now we have some 2000 years old structures built by Romans that survived numerous wars and cataclisms.
@@neyte7313 Rome wasn't founded in the year 0 lol. There were around for hundreds of years before, and by 200 BC were already becoming a hegemonic power in the Mediterranean. If you believe the Roman kings they were around at 700 BC.
If you think about it Ollivander's is like the staples of the wizarding world except I would actually be happy going to Ollivander's
Last time I was this early, Scabbers was still thought to be a rat
He's still a rat
RuanneDoesStuff lol
It got me by the surprise that he said "don't forget to enjoy the video" at the beginning, instead of "don't forget to subscribe."
Honestly, that was the reason why I subscribed
Dean, I have not been disappointed with any of your videos.
I absolutely love having more Harry Potter content to watch cause I'm such a fan of the potter
Same pinch 😁
Cgh
Uuh
Can't argue with that 👍
@@bluecasanova372 yep, checks out
Okay, I’ll be the boring, pedantic one... The Romans had indirect contact with Britain going back to at least the 4th century BC. Britain was a source of tin, which was necessary for making bronze, and had been traded with by the Phoenicians and Greeks going back to Classical times. It’s known that the rest of Europe was trading with Britain far back into the Bronze Age.
Anyway, we know that Hellenistic and early Roman influences were already being felt centuries before Julius Caesar’s invasion in the 1st Century BC. Celtic native Britons were also shown to be using Roman coins and native copies of Roman coins long before the invasion.
So, it’s not a huge stretch for an entrepreneurial magical person, who would have known about Britain through stories and sailors’ tales, to up stakes and decide to be the first Roman trader in magical artifacts from the Mediterranean world at that time.
True. But it would be a stretch for him to actually have the name "Ollivander". Most people didn't have last names at the time, and certainly not ones based in languages that didn't exist yet. He would have had a name based in ancient Latin or Greek. Which may possibly have been later Anglicized into "Ollivander", or the name Ollivander may have been added as a family name centuries later.
no youre not boring
youre hermione
you probably read every book in the world and managed to remember it all
Cheers to pedantry! Live by it, lol
Couldn’t find Olivanders, had to settle for a stick and a penknife.
A Smith and Wesson also does the Avada Kedavra trick.
Go for Gregorovitch. Same good as Ollivander's.
em7phoenix if he wasn’t dead.
@@u.v.s.5583 LOL :D
I've settled for a good pen. I've been told it's quite mighty.
You got me thinking: Who replaced Olivander and Gregorovich after the second Wizarding War, in wand making? Is there a school to go learn how to make wands or do you have to apprentice to a wand maker, or is there a course in wand making at the various schools ot wizardry?
Olivander didn't die
@@lahlybird895 he would die eventually so technically the question is still valid
@@robertritter8444 he could've had family who'd take over
@@robertritter8444 Fair point.
But I don't think it's all that complicated.
I mean,
A muggle managed to do it.
But otherwise I think aprentisship,
I would imagine a relation of some sort was being apprenticed after the war.
I took an interest in Ollivander once I found out that he was not only a fellow Ravenclaw, but that the character shares my birthday...the only one in the Wizarding world!!
One of the channels that I am always looking forward for the new uploads ❤
I find it wild af how insanely amazing his mind is. Hes old but he remembers everything and everyone
I would love to know what will happen to Ollivanders once Garrick passes. He never married or had any children that I know of. Does he have an apprentice that will take over wandmaking? If not then how will new witches and wizards acquire their wands?
There are other wandmakers but Ollivanders was known to have the best quality wands and a long history with wandmaking.
@@marleymorningstar3671 Sadly the Ollivanders are best like amazon, but once he's gone......... Imagine wish being the only source of online shopping........... Yikes
Ollivander had literally hundreds if not thousands of wands laying around his store to last for years to come for people to get the wands they need and not only that but when people die their wands could be passed on to the next person and like at the battle of Hogwarts with hundreds of dead people leaving a bunch of wands laying around to use
I loved this video!!!the history of Ollivander’s has always fascinated me. Thank you so much for this one, Dean!
There's actually a fairly easy way to explain the discrepancy between the Ollivander shop's opening and the arrival of Romans in Great Brittan. The shop's sign only says "Makers of fine wands"... it doesn't say "Makers of fine wands _IN BRITTAN."_
Honestly , My Favorite Wands Are Of Course The Elder Wand And Salazar Slytherin’s because it also has healing properties , it can sleep like a basilisk and it’s just so unique.
What would your wizarding world profession be? After hogwarts The first thing I would do is be an apprentice for mr. Ollivander after that I’d move to hogsmead and be a wand repairer for the students. Love your videos! Also look forward to the next one. Can you do a wizarding world profession video and what kind of jobs you can have in the wizarding world.
I'd imagine getting your first wand in the Ollivander family would be a massive thing to celebrate over - don't get me wrong, all wizardkind would be ecstatic when a family member gets their first wand, but this _is_ a Wand-obsessed family.
"Don't forget to be happy." Perfect.
Did Gelard have any kids? Or was he the 'last' Olivandar? Does anyone out there know?
idk
Mohammad Quamrul Islam i think he had 2 but that may be just fanfiction
@Sonia
He had no children.
@@gigiw.7650 Yes he did. He had a son & a daughter who sadly died. But he DOES have a son still living; I looked it up ⬆️, so I’m assuming after he dies his son will take over the shop. 😉
Awesome video of all time.... Excellent work always 💪 🙌👌😁... Been waiting for you to upload this one.... YAY...
always wanted to be a Hufflepuff, but Rowena designing Hogwarts, Ollivander's wand making skills and Luna's smarts and personality are what make me glad (& proud) that Im in Ravenclaw....
I also wish we had more information about wandmaking in North America. Hope that info will be coming out soon along with the other four still unnamed magical schools around the world.
This video was so amazing and informative!!💕I knew nothing about Ollivanders (apart from that it was the best shop to get your wand) and now I know lots!😃 Thank you Harry Potter Folklore!
How nice it had been if someone wrote more on the lore. A writer devoted only to its creation on paper, someone who never got blinded by fame and money. The world would be a better place.........
Strange how wands are everywhere in the HP world, but magic staffs are quite rare.
Love this HPF ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for all your hard work! ❣️❣️❣️
I wonder about the details of Gerrick Olivander's personal wand, did his father make his current wand or did he make it himself? How many wands did he personally own and use throughout his life? Do the wands he makes have any loyalty to him, like could he use any wand he made with the level of skill that he could use his own personal wand?
I like to think that Garrick Olivander's daughter that died was a Hogwarts DADA professor that died from the jinx
FASCINATING as always.. Thanks for all your hard work..
Best wishes from Wales .. :D
Thanks Dean for another great and informative video.
Thank you for always uploading harry potter content. I really enjoy all of them. And I watch them mostly 90% of the time except for the arogrog video XD I just hate spiders lol so yeah besides that though I appreciate you taking your time in doing all of this for us. It helps me especially since I don't have access to the books anymore and have no other way to enjoy the harry potter world other than by this. So I truly appreciate it very much what you do. Truly thank you.
I love videos on wand and wandlore in general. It is the career I would want in the wizarding world. Sometimes I just like reading about the variety of wand woods.
Omg this is awesome!!!!!!
I love your views and opinions on the wizard world and I would have never though of some of your theories. Keep it up!!!!!! 😁😁😁😁😁💗💗💗💗💗
Hp folklore: welcome back to the world of Harry potter
Me: but I never left it
This video makes me want a real wand even more!!🙁
Same!!!
Wish Magic was real..
@@GatoSanDad yep
Don't we all?
Have you taken the wand test on Pottermore? If you have then go to Harry Potter world and you can get you very own wand made! Sadly it does not produce actual magic!
:(
I sadly didn’t have the money to go to Ollivanders... wish I could’ve!
Hey Gin I was wondering if I could buy you a wand...
Not meant to be offensive Gin but I know Mrs. Weasley can’t get it for you.
Thank you. Very informative and quite entertaining
That picture of olivander used during wand cores is my new favorite picture of him
I really like ur vids i wished i can go to the real ollivanders and get my wand🥰
Love the channel! Keep up the great job!!!
Umm I don’t need Olivander, I have the elder wand edit: I don’t anymore
Welp, your also dead, so, didn't do you too good.
atleast you got together with your lost loved one (grindelwald)
@@firefoxmedia516 did he die? Thought he was locked up in his special prison?
@@robertritter8444 ( spoiler but u technically asked for it so ) Voldemort kills Grindelwald in the deathly hallows after He refused to tell Voldy where the elder wand is. It's different in the movies tho
@@filmfilms9579 thanks I'm on the fifth, haven't finished the books yet. I know that's terrible
Intersting. I wonder if the Olivandars of old did anything with magical staves which were in use during the middle ages. The only wizard I see use one in Harry Potter is Mad Eye in the Order of the Phoenix movie.
It is curious that the Phoenix feather wand choose Harry and that it was Voldemort's wand. This gives Harry protection through the twin core effect.
It is also curious that in Deathly Hallows Hermione's wand works well for Harry.
I thought Dumbledore had one in the sorting feast scene one year (then again, I might be misremembering it as wasn't one of the Dumbldores also Gandalf?)
@@christinacody5845 No, Gandalf was played by Ian McKellen
I've had a difficult week and was so looking forward to your next video coming out, thank you!🥰
According to pottermore website my wand is dragon heartstring and blackthorn:)
Kory St. Aoro
I have the exact same wand
Mine is larch wood w/ a dragon heartstring :))))
Mine is ash wood and unicorn hair
Before I was properly invested into hp, I thought when it said 382bc I thought the current ollivander had been around since then
Maybe he was buddies with Nicholas Flamel or played around with magic so long he came up with a spell.
I don't understand why Ollivander didn't categorize the Thunderbird feather as a supreme core? They're sooo awesome!
I think the establishment of ollivanders could be easily retconed. Could of been founded pre Roman invasion and they came at that point. Details afterall can be lost in time.
Nice vid dude, keep It up!
Very nice video. Tho I am a wand maker myself. I still found what wand of Ollivander’s would chose me. The wand that would chose me is 14 1/2 inches made of Elder with a Phoenix tail feather. Tho my wand is 15 inches made of ebony with a basilisks fang.
Mines made of Tom cruise wand wood and l ron Hubbard heart string core most powerful
Matt Rb a very interesting wand you then
Go down to Hogwarts there's a whole basilisk skeleton in the chamber of secrets just waiting to be harvest and maybe try taking wood from the magical whooping Willow tree outside Hogwarts would make a good wand material too work with lol
My wand is made out of ivory with a chuck Norris beard hair core , it's very powerful lol
Moreover it stated by rolling that first wands ( and wands in general) was without core and only focused magic of it user and used to establish a new sort of casting spell by using set of movements to genrliezed casting.
In it base magic is wandless and wordless , but if you want to replicate a feat of someone else you need to understand him, and what he did . So chant and movements are like two languages that make communication easier like regular communication.
30% of human communication is lost when speaking on phone because the body language is missing.
I find it hard to believe that there were so few wandmakers, considering every wizard has one.
My wand is phoenix feather core and I’m like YAAAAAAAASSS
Early!
Btw ur vids are phenomenally awesome
Love it! One of your best videos yet, I love all things Harry Potter but the wands have always interested me
Now we need a video on the life of Gellert Grindelwald followed by Newt Scamander, since those two started the Fantastic Beasts series.
After this, there needs to be videos on Nicholas Flamel and the Goldstein sisters.
I’m not sure whether a video on Jacob Kowalski is needed as he was a muggle.
In regards to the creatures, the bowtruckle should be next followed by the thunderbird and occamy.
I think those videos will have to wait for the Fantastic Beasts movies because we will not know their full stories until that series wraps up. The second movie made more questions that it answered.
Karl Bergen you’re correct about that but my comment was meant in general.
A video on Jacob kowalski would be very Interesting he was a ww1 veteran I think. So it could be Interesting if they talk about his past and maybe how he reacted to ww2 in later movies. Or maybe he saw some wizards fighting during the war. There was a story that ww1 soldiers saw Angel's that helped them fight in the war maybe kowalski could be one of the soldiers who saw that and instead of Angel's they were actually wizards but muggles just said Angel's cause they weren't sure what they were seeing
Adrian Sanchez that’s very interesting.
Another important consideration about the Ollivander family (and indeed ALL families, both wizard and muggle): if you trace them all the way back to 382 BC, their name cannot possibly have been "Ollivander" for all that time. Languages evolve over time, and so do names. The name "Ollivander" would be based on languages much more recent than ancient Rome. That original "Ollivander" of 382 BC would probably have had a name like "Eliaravdi" or "Olivalignus" or something like that, from ancient Greek or Latin. And the vast majority of people of that time would not have had both a first and last name - just one name. Family names were a much more recent development. On rare occasions, a king or emperor might have two names, but almost no one else did. Think of all the ancient philosophers and kings and Biblical characters and others of that era with only one name.
Or that original "Ollivander" may have had a name totally unrelated to the modern name of Ollivander, and the last name was likely only added as the family name a few centuries ago. Many families had no last names as recently as 200-300 years ago.
Would it be possible if the current Ollivander makes wands in a muggle way? Like having power tools, and paint?
So lucky they got John Hurt to play this part. He nailed it...just as he’s nailed every part he’s ever taken. On might have some issues with the movie adaptations as compared to the books, but Truly, all of the adult actors cast in the Potter movies were spot on....well, EXCEPT for Micheal Gambon.
As always, Great Job, Dean!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Please can you make one on st. Mungo’s hospital for magical maladies coz this is an important institution in the wizard world that never appeared in the movies.
I rly liked how he was portrait in the books. The fact that harry never knew if he liked him or not because he was kinda weird.
Solid info and well made. Good job.
What wood type used he the most or liked working with most?
What is the rarest wood he ever used?
According to pottermore the rarest is Elder (like the one The Elder Wand is made from)
Yew would is very popular cuz it's very well rounded to work with, wonder if they try using magical wood like that whooping Willow tree outside Hogwarts or mandrake plant cuz they're very wooden , would make a good wand wood to work with maybe making a strong wand
Does Ollivander have any one to take his place once he dies? I always wonder if he had relatives.
So fun to poke around Ollivander’s in Wizards Unite!
I paused Harry Potter to watch Harry Potter Folklore😳
Potterception......
Wow
Some me Type stuff
Gangsta 😎
Lol
Happy Halloween to all people in US and A 🎃🎃🎃
And A???
Rory Hancock I think it’s it „US and A“ it’s added to complete USA.
Ollivander does have at least one other location in the UK besides Daigon Alley. Perhaps he has other locations that could be run by other family members/apprentices.
An explanation for the Ollivander from Rome is that he arrived with Greek or Roman Traders, who had been visiting the British Isles for a while before the Roman military moved in.
Awesome video!! Super interesting stuff!!
this is good so far. I wonder, if the dragon heartstring wand's strong bond with its owner could be reminiscent of the Dragon Riders in either the Inheritance Cycle or Dragonriders of Pern series. this seems plausible, at least for me, as the beasts also bond to people, so the wand presented in the video with dragon heartstrings, could also do so.
Dean plz do a video on Easter Eggs in the Books and movies
Here is one from the books which more than 95% of people reading my comment won’t know
When Snape was filling in for Lupin as the defence against Dark Arts teacher for a day he said “Turn to page 397” On page 397 of the 3rd book (In which he was filling for Lupin) we find that Peter Pettigrew had already been passing information to Voldemort one year before Lily and James were killed. This is one of the biggest shocks in the book
Now that I look back I can’t believe how big of a genius is Rowling
Plz like the comment
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
It is a Coincidence. The book comes in many types of copies, large, small, large font, etc. So in certain versions it wouldn’t be that way.
Hi I love the vids keep up the great work
I will amend your statement about Rowlings dates to this: she meant to say 382 AD, not BC. That was the year Magnus Maximus were fighting the Scots, though the dates ive seen are 380, 381, 382, AND 383 AD for the conflicts. It puts us 786 years later, but the history for Olivander makes much more sense if we do. 😊
But there was a cast Celtic trading route ore-Roman. It actually makes more sense for the wand merchant to set up shop there before the Roman invasion.
It's a pity J.K. decided to say Ollivander's lineage went back to Roman settlers. Her original date would have meant Ollivander's lineage was Celtic, possibly even Druidic. The Druid reverence for trees would have brought an interesting flow into the study of wand woods.
I'd be interested on learning about other wandmakers besides Ollivanders.
I love you videos.. thankyou for taking me back to magical world ....
what i thought always would be koo if like a rebel wand maker and rebel goblin got tg and made a wand u kno the goblin learns wand lore and the wand maker learns goblin smithing i think it would rival the elder wand idk just always a thought goblins eye for mats and the experience of the wand maker
Fawkes Albus Dumbledore's Phoenix, gave only 2 Tail Feathers, 1 went to the Wand of Tom Morvolo Riddle, AKA Lord Voldemort, and the other in its Holly Brother, which was sold to Harry James Potter on his 11th Birthday, July 31, 1991, Harry also Got a Snowy Owl From Rubeus Hagrid the Keeper of Keys and Grounds at Hogwarts, Which he Named Hedwig, She Died in the Battle of the 7 Potters, Defending Harry From a Death Eaters Attack.
Ollivanders as a business was probably established in Rome in 382BC, since the sign says makers of fine wands since that time, not that the store in Diagon alley has been there since then.
I just read that the elder wands core is a thestral hair and only a witch or wizard that accepts death can control the elder wands power if they are the owner of course and Voldemort didnt accept death so he technically shouldnt have done very good magic with it since he didnt own it and didnt accept death
He looks like a timelord
I wonder who makes the wands in North America and around the world?
Also, who were Ollivander's competition?
I'm pretty sure Americans make their own wands
@@tylersoto7465 I am sure they do. But it would be interesting to hear who are these competitors are
One video subject that could interest fellow HP fans is Can we and How to boost/pimp one's wand for more power ? be it building it with strong quality materials or enchanting it with magic.
Wandlore is very interesting as there are many possible combinations between wood and wand core.
Maybe JK got BC and AD mixed up?
I took the Harry Potter wand test, my wand is made of English oak wood with a dragon heartstrings core 😊
When did wizards start using wands, and how did other types of wandmakers develop (like the Americans use different want cores and woods)?
Hey Dean! I have some questions regarding wands. Who can wield them? Only humans can? In The Chamber of Secrets,a Cornish Pixie steals Lockhart's wand and breaks the roof candelabra's chain and in FB and where to find them,the monkey that steals Newt's wand operates it. I know they can't produce real spells,but aren't they supposed to work only for humans?
Mr. Olivander, is the one of two individuals in Harry Potter that is still loved after he was a "tad" traderous to the cause. Only because who the heck was going to continue making amazing high quality wands!?? The other being Prof. Slughorn." Only because he was an amazing Potion master. and both were sorry of what they did.
This is such an amazing vid❤️
My wand is Laurel wood with a unicorn hair core, 13 ¾
Mines oak with a hair from your mum 14 3/4
Mine is ivory with a chuck Norris beard hair core very powerful lol
What I’ve always wondered was how they get the cores into the wood. It doesn’t seem that the wand has any ports to insert anything and the wand is all one piece. So how is it done. Do wizards use Wood glue?
Not ashamed to admit Harry Potter introduced me to become a magician
