Bellatrix Lestrange's first wand



The wand of Bellatrix Lestrange was 12¾" walnut with a dragon heartstring core. It was described as being "unyielding".

History
As Hermione Granger identified this wand as being the one that tortured Alice and Frank Longbottom, it is likely that Bellatrix used his wand both before and after her imprisonment in Azkaban, possibly since the age of eleven. She recovered it after escaping from prison in 1996, fighting with it during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries and killing her cousin Sirius Black with it.

Bellatrix used this wand until the spring of 1998, when Ron Weasley disarmed her in Malfoy Manor after she had tortured Hermione. She won the advantage by holding a knife to Hermione's throat, forcing Ron and Harry Potter to drop their wands and ordering her nephew Draco Malfoy to recover hers, but Dobby then interceded. The house-elf and the trio escaped with her wand.

and Bellatrix reported that her wand had been stolen to Gringotts Wizarding Bank, as she feared Harry, Hermione, and Ron would try to break into her vault. Within weeks, this is precisely what they did. Bellatrix's wand was used by Hermione Granger at least until Bellatrix's death in the Battle of Hogwarts.
