Wandmakers

Chapter 7

 A wandmaker is an individual who crafts and sells wands for Witches and Wizards. Without wandmakers, our wizarding society would have new become what it is today. The wands they craft and sell will go to young Witches and Wizards who are just beginning their magic education, or Witches or Wizards that need a replacement wand. Wands all cost seven galleons, regardless of wood or core. However, Unicorn Tail Hair wands are sold for ten galleons. The reason for the price difference is unknown, wandmakers speculate it may be due to the how the hair is cut from unicorn.

The art of wand forging is known as Wandcraft. This craft has been in use for thousands of years! Ollivander's Wand Shop was established in 382 b.c, one of the first known Wand Shops in recorded history. But, All wand shops and wandmakers vary in wand materials used, wandlore opinions, and types of wands sold. Be sure to keep this in mind if buying a wand. For not all wandmakers are honest wandmakers.
