Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) got his first broomstick in Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. The metal parts of the broom were goblin-made ironwork, a first for a broomstick, which increased stability and power in adverse conditions and prevented slippage on the foot grips.This broomstick also boasted an unbreakable Braking Charm, superb balance and precision, and hovered at reasonable mounting height when let go. And even though the broom proved to be jinx/curse free, caution should always be the rule with anonymous gifts, especially really expensive ones.

The handle has an authentic ash-wood appearance with ancient rune scribes engraved onto the top of the handle. While Harry survived the fall, the broomstick fell on the Whomping Willow, which completely destroyed it. This officially licensed Lumos Fawkes charm is a stunning addition to any Potterhead’s charm bracelet or necklace. He also used the broom to get past a Hungarian Horntail during the First Task of the Triwizard Tournament in 1994.The Firebolt was first developed by Randolph Spudmore around 1993, at a time when brooms made by the Nimbus Racing Broom Company dominated the market. This officially licensed Lumos Time-Turner charm is a stunning addition to any Potterhead’s charm bracelet or necklace.

When it comes to dressing up for a night out, special occasion, or the biggest event of the year, Halloween, we have you covered. This officially licensed Lumos Quidditch Trunk charm is a stunning addition to any Potterhead’s charm bracelet or necklace.Sirius Black was the closest Harry had to a caring family member, but given that Sirius escaped from Azkaban Prison, they couldn’t share much time together. The broomstick comes with a wall mount for you to hang proudly in any room in your house, making this the perfect item for any mega fan of the series, and ideal for any aspiring witch or wizard. Though the Firebolt was confiscated for several months during the 1995–1996 school year by Dolores Umbridge after she gave Harry a lifetime ban from Quidditch, [7] he regained it after she left the school. Over time, the Firebolt broomstick was used by the Bulgarian and Irish International Quidditch Teams. And then he heard it, speeding through the air behind him; he turned and saw his Firebolt hurtling towards him around the edge of the woods, soaring into the enclosure, and stopping dead in mid-air beside him, waiting for him to mount.
