sparkler
Wand of light
A sparkler is a handheld firework that burns slowly with bright sparks, popular at celebrations like Fourth of July and New Year's Eve: The children waved sparklers in the dark.
In informal use, a sparkler is a diamond or other gem that catches light brilliantly, especially an engagement ring: She showed off her new sparkler.
