Wiccan wands are almost always made of wood, though ivory, metal, and crystal are also occasionally used. The type of wood used can vary, but hawthorn and ash are common.
Each type of wood has a specific symbolism, and so the use the wand will be put to may dictate the wood used. For instance, oak trees are supposed to be invulnerable to lightning, so oak is often associated with strength, protection, and invulnerability. Ash is also often associated with protection, while willow is associated with femininity or intuition, birch with purification, and hawthorn with fertility.
