This beautiful Wizard Staff features a large purple amethyst crystal. The staff in the picture is the one you will receive. It is unique.

Yes, that's right...the most amazing thing about this staff is that it lights up! Two ways! It is 63" tall (about 5 feet) and 4 1/4" at the widest. It is made of molded and shaped PVC with a twist in the shaft which is about 1 and 1/4" in diameter. (It fits nicely in your hand!) The designs are done in hot ethylene-vinyl acetate, followed by a four step painting process making it look like dark wood. It is finished with a poly sealer. The bottom is fitted with a rubber tip.

This staff has two lights!

All the batteries are replaceable. Instructions are included, and can be seen on our website. (IvysWandsAndWhimsies.com)

Light #1 - This is the main light. It is an LED flashlight that sits in the center of the shaft and illuminates the crystal from below with a bright white light. This white light shows off the natural color of the crystal. This light is lighted by sticking your pinky finger (or eraser end of a pencil) in the small hole on the side of the staff near the base of the crystal and pushing up on the flashlight button inside.

Light #2 - This secondary light is a multicolor RGB (it stands for Red, Green, Blue) LED which transitions through all the colors. The RGB LED is activated by gently turning the knob at the head of the staff. Turning the threaded knob to the right (clockwise) turns the light on; turning the knob to the left (counter-clockwise) turns the light off. IMPORTANT: if you continue turning the knob all the way to the left, it will come off—that is how the batteries are changed.

*Consider upgrading your color changing RGB LED light for a constant color LED for an extra charge--just choose the color in the drop down box. (Your staff would have Light #1 (white light) and Light #2 in a constant, non-changing, color LED of your choice.) Please look at the full RGB video to get an idea of how the colors show through this crystal.

The glow of the this staff is fairly bright and will easily light your way along a forest path at night! This Wizard staff will complete any magical costume and will make a great gift for the Wizard who has everything!

Amethyst is a type of quartz colored purple by the presence of manganese and iron. The name comes from the Greek ametusthos, which means “not intoxicated.” Legend says the beautiful traveling maid, Amethyst, angered the wine god Bacchus. To save her, the goddess, Diana turned her into a white crystal. A regretful Bacchus poured some of his wine on the crystal giving it the purple color. For this reason it has become known as the “sobriety stone” and is said to prevent drunkenness and protect travelers from attack.
