Ollivanders is a magic wand shop described as narrow and shabby,
with a sign that reads Ollivanders: Makers of Fine Wands since 382 BC in peeling gold letters over the door. The only display is a single wand lying on a purple cushion in the dusty window and inside there are thousands of narrow boxes piled neatly right up to the ceiling.
Mr Ollivander, the pale-eyed, white-haired shopkeeper, makes and sells magic wands to witches and wizards as they enter school or break their old wands. He remembers each and every wand he has ever sold. To determine the best wand for a witch or wizard, Mr Ollivander measures various body parts (including, in
Harry''s case, between his nostrils) and then checks the reactions of various wands to the buyer, a process he refers to as "the wand choosing the wizard."
The shop closed when Mr Ollivander went missing on 31 July, 1996 in mysterious circumstances, strongly suspected to be linked with rising Death Eater activity. One of his last customers was Neville Longbottom.
Flourish & Blotts sells a great variety of books, including textbooks for Hogwarts courses and other books of general magical interest. In the back there is a corner devoted solely to Divination, which includes a small table stacked with titles like Predicting the Unpredictable: Insulate Yourself against Shocks and Broken Balls: When Fortunes Turn Foul . Another small display contains the book Death Omens: What to Do When You Know the Worst is Coming .
There is usually a display of gold-embossed spellbooks the size of paving slabs in the window
The
Magical Menagerie is a magical creature shop that, besides selling magical creatures, also offers advice on animal care and health. The shop is very cramped, noisy and smelly, due to every inch being covered with cages. Among the creatures in the Magical Menagerie are enormous purple toads, a gigantic tortoise with a jewel-encrusted shell, poisonous orange snails, a fat white rabbit that can turn into a silk top hat and back, cats of every colour, ravens, Puffskeins, and a cage of sleek black rats that play skipping games with their tails.
