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.

..........................
Quote:
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?
