Whether you’re a wonderful wizard or a dark magician, no magic act is complete without the right magician supplies. Audiences today expect to be dazzled, so you’ll need the right tools to polish your performance. In this article, we’ll conjure up a list of items that no illusionist should be without.

Ask anyone what a magician wears and they’re sure to include a collapsible top hat and a magic wand. These standard item can be picked up inexpensively at any illusion store. They can also be found in the costumes department of many toy stores. A breakaway wand is a little more sophisticated. The magician selects an assistant and then waves and taps his wand. However, when he gives the wand to his assistant, the wand falls apart. This is a very basic item for any illusion show.

Silks are a versatile tool that are a must-have when purchasing magician supplies. Because these colorful fabrics can be an accessory to a magical effect or be used as the illusion themselves, they come in a variety of colors and sizes. You may also choose to use a mouth coil with the silks for a magic trick that is popular with audiences of all ages. The magician stands facing the audience and they will notice something protruding from his lips.

When he pulls on it, an impossibly long swath of fabric will appear. Canes are also an accessory to silks. An ‘appearing cane’ is a tool that displays silk that magically turns into a solid cane. The trick works in reverse with the ‘vanishing cane’ ,which is a cane that turns into two colorful silks.
