magical objects

Items with powers

Magical objects are items believed or depicted to possess supernatural powers—wands, amulets, enchanted swords, flying carpets.

The term appears most often in fantasy fiction and folklore, where such objects grant abilities, protect their owners, or carry curses: The story hinges on a quest for magical objects scattered across the realm.

In everyday speech, magical objects may describe anything with seemingly miraculous properties: Her grandmother's recipes were magical objects, capable of fixing any bad day.
