History[]

During the early part of the 2020–2021 school year, Albus used this wand multiple times on his journey through time with his best friend Scorpius Malfoy in an attempt to save Cedric Diggory's life.[1]
Later in the same year, Delphini, the daughter of Lord Voldemort, snapped the wand.[4] Albus likely purchased a new wand after the skirmish at St Jerome's Church.
Behind the scenes[]
This wand on display at A Celebration of Harry Potter
- It is highly likely that Albus purchased this wand from Ollivanders in Diagon Alley, as this is where most wizards in Great Britain purchase their wands from.
- The wand was made by the set designer for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Christine Jones and her team. The wand may be made of cherry, as she looked at cherry blossum buds from cherry branches and "incorporated them into the texture". The wand has "seed like markings across the base" and is thought to be sturdy.[5]
- Jones also believed the wand was a source of comfort for Albus and a magical force.[5]
- Albus's wand is now available to buy on the Cursed Child website.[6]
- The initial "A" of Albus is carved into the bottom of the wand.[citation needed]
