18th century sex toys fetch $5,400

BRENTWOOD, England, March 26 (UPI) -- An anonymous bidder is paying $5,400 for two 18th century phallus-shaped wooden sex toys, an auction house in England says.

Brentwood Antiques describes the rosewood objects as "exceptionally rare" and says they were probably of French origin, The (London) Daily Telegraph reports.

Listed under the category of "Erotica," the sex toys were presented to Brentwood's bidding audience as "a good opportunity for investment."

"You won't see another one in a long time," said auctioneer Wendy Wood.
