Luna's first wand was taken from her in December of 1997 when she was abducted by Death Eaters and imprisoned in the dungeons of Malfoy Manor. Ollivander was also being held prisoner there, and she was a great comfort to him. They were rescued along with several others around Easter of 1998 by Dobby the house-elf, and brought to Shell Cottage, the home of Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour.
After his recovery, Ollivander constructed a new wand for Luna in thanks for all she had done for him. She practised with it while staying at the cottage and used it during the Battle of Hogwarts, during which she conjured her corporeal hare Patronus against Dementors and faced off against the powerful Death Eater Bellatrix Lestrange.
