Voldemort's (Ralph Fiennes) light-up wand from the Harry Potter series. Voldemort wielded his wand to kill and torture those who dared stand in his way.

The eight Harry Potter movies grossed a total of $7.7 billion worldwide, and spawned a cinematic spin-off series. Between them, the eight films have won 154 awards.

This hero wand, which has a light-up feature, was designed for scenes in which Voldemort cast spells, which were then created using visual effects during post-production.

In the wizarding world, Voldemort's wand was made of yew wood with a phoenix feather core. In reality, this wand is made of resin, finished to give it a bone-like appearance that aligns with Voldemort's sinister and morbid depiction. This makes it one of the most distinct wand designs seen in the series. The wand's tip is affixed with a clear acrylic LED light, which illuminates when the bottom of the handle is tightened. This function is powered when three AAAA batteries are inserted into a metal chamber, accessed by twisting open the bottom of the handle.

The wand is accompanied by a display stand comprising a wooden base with "Voldemort" carved into its underside, and a metal rod for holding the piece. Dimensions (wand): 35 cm x 5 cm x 2.25 cm (13.75" x 2" x 1")

Contains electronics; see electronics notice in the Terms and Conditions.

Estimate: £25,000 - 50,000 M
