April 28, 2010: $5544 Sex Toys

Antique sex toys... antique wooden sex toys... antique French wooden sex toys.

Two historic sex toys thought to date back to the 1700s have been sold at an Essex auction for £3,600.

One of the objects measures 10in (25cm) and the other 11in (28cm).
Staff at the auction described the sex toys as "extraordinary and exceptionally rare". The catalogue description read: "Designed to please Lot 340 - an extraordinary and exceptionally rare "Travel Godermiche". "A pair of wooden phallus contained within a fitted kid leather covered Treen case with strap fleurs-de-lys decoration. The case, although having a re-lined interior, appears to have aged commensurate with the phallus.


Rare? Yeah, it's not the sort of thing that gets handed down for generations, or listed in your estate inventory, for that matter.

Oh, and the auctioneer was Wendy Wood... Wendy Wood's wooden woodies? ;)

You'd wanna watch for splinters.

In Japan, ye olde dildoes were made of stone. Trick was to warm them up in a bowl of hot water first.

That's a lot of money for something to hide in your underwear drawer.

Not to gross anyone out or anything, but those were made of bleached pine originally. :D

I would think that for $5544 you could buy something that was pretty spectacular in bed. :p:
Shawnee123 • Apr 28, 2010 3:11 pm
Nah, I cost WAY more than that! ;)

That guy who bought the woodies in EsSEX got the shaft(s).

Kinda brings new meaning to the topic of "Morning Wood", doesn't it?

Way to decloak after five years, Glass Jaw! Will it be another five before you post again?
