Merlin's Cousin Ralphy's wand

My dear witch, wizard and magical persons, this wand once belonged to a quite unknown but very powerful alchemist - “Ralphy” he was a relative of the actual Merlin the wizard. Unfortunately, Ralphy couldn’t grow a long, beautiful beard like his cousin, not even a tiny mustache. Well - not until he mixed an extraordinarily strong potion. On this night the saying ‘By Merlin’s cousin’s beard!’ was born. The wand is made out of Bavarian pear wood in 11 3/4" with a dragon heartstring core.
