Wands have been a feature of magic for decades and perhaps much much longer. Tinkerbell in Disney's version of _Peter Pan_ (1953) has a short wand that works with a flick of the wrist. [](https://i.stack.imgur.com/Kcp8i.png) I could come up with 100 more examples if I wanted to take the time. But I'll leave that to you. Wands are part and parcel of the magical universe. Not everyone uses them to do magic. Even in Harry Potter they have some magic done with wands and some that isn't. Many stories don't use them at all. But they're common enough that anyone who is well read in fantasy (or who has seen fantasy movies) has seen them multiple times. Your proposed wand effect is standard. Just don't copy explanations and descriptions.
