For the young witch or wizard, there is no more anticipated moment than the sorting - in the first few minutes at wizarding school, you find which house will be like your family while you receive your magical education. For those of daring nerve and chivalry, a ruby-patterned handle is just the wand for you. Emerald-marbled handles go well with those who like snakes, and won't be left behind. Maybe you're a top-grade student - the sapphire handle may be just the thing for you. Or if you're hard working and loyal, or maybe you just like badgers - go for the citrine handle.
My personal projects always take a backseat to customers, so I'm thrilled to have this one done. Turning acrylics was a bit of a stretch for me, where I've always stuck to solid woods before, but the results are stunning. Which wand chooses you? Click on a handle below to see details for that wand.
I've been excited about this project for a long time. As usual, my personal projects take a back-seat to customers, so I'm thrilled to finally have these done.
Waiting List Information
All my woodwork is custom made, after you place your order. Wait times vary depending on my workload and the intricacy of the item you order - anywhere from two weeks to several months. Please contact me before placing your order if you have any questions. Thanks!
