Lucius Malfoy's wand

This wand belonged to Lucius Malfoy, head of the pure blood Malfoy Family. Noticeably, the wand is concealed within Lucius Malfoy's snake-headed walking stick, an heirloom of the Malfoy Family. The wand fits into the walking stick life a sword into a scabbard. Lucius was in possession of his wand/walking stick for the majority of his life, but when he was sent to Azkaban his son was seen in possession of the walking stick (though it is doubtful he used his fathers wand but continued to use his own. After Azkaban, Lucius regained his wand, but it was taken by Lord Voldemort in order to solve Voldemort's problem with his and Harry's wand sharing the same core. It was destroyed during the Battle of the Seven Potters in Voldemort's possession.

History


After being discovered to be a Death Eater, Lucius lost possession of his heirloom temporarily. His son, Draco Malfoy, was shown to have taken ownership of it in his father's absence, though it is unknown if he used it.

Argus Filch was distrusting of Draco taking the walking stick into Hogwarts Castle, suspecting it to be an artefact filled with Dark Magic. Severus Snape, Draco's sworn protector, allowed him safe passage into the castle and he kept the stick, hiding the wand, with him.

After his release from Azkaban, Lucius regained ownership of his cane and wand.



The wand was taken from him by Lord Voldemort in 1997 since the Dark Lord wanted to prevent Priori Incantatem from occurring between his own wand and Harry Potter's wand. Harry's wand destroyed it during the Battle over Little Whinging. It is noted that the Dark Lord only took Lucius' Wand, not the Cane nor the Head, which he ripped off. It is unknown if Lucius got a replacement for the wand as it is not stated.

Behind the scenes

 * In the film adaptations of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Lucius does replace this wand.
 * Lord Voldemort breaks the silver snake head from the handle of the wand, returning it to Lucius, before using it to try and kill Harry Potter.
 * In Deathly Hallows: Part 1, Lucius' wand does not break during the Battle over Little Whinging. Voldemort can be seen holding it while interrogating Ollivander about it after the battle. While it is never seen after that, it's plausible that Voldemort either snapped it in two out of anger, or just got rid of it. The fate of the wand in the film remains unknown.
