Over time, J K Rowling has revealed more details about the Harry Potter character wands and what they mean. The wand chooses the wizard in the wizarding world, as Harry learns firsthand in The Sorcerer’s Stone when he goes to visit Ollivander’s wand shop in Diagon Alley. Wands are indispensable objects, used for everything from combat to household chores. Students learn how to wield these tools with finesse during their time at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, though some show more outright skill than others, leading to a few explosive moments, courtesy of one Seamus Finnegan.
