Toys: Songs from the Wood

Introducing a new line of toys is always an exciting thing here at Blowfish. It’s even more exciting when they are of a new, exotic material. We’ve wanted to carry wood toys here for a long time, but each generation we’ve looked at before has been not quite right: not finished well enough, not the right shape, not attractive enough, not sealed properly.

Our ship filled with exotic woods (wait! don’t send us email about deforestation! see below) has finally come in, though, and we now have three new wonderful toys to share with you. Let us tour the woodlands together, shall we?

Before we talk about each individual toy, though, each one shares some great properties. They are sanded to an extremely smooth finish, and sealed with a coating that prevents moisture from getting in or splinters from getting you; the manufacturer even says that they are waterproof, and thus bath-safe (and they float!). The finish is also hypoallergenic. The wood was harvested under the guidelines of the Forest Stewardship Council. You can use any lube you care to (water, silicone, oil) with these toys. The manufacturer even says that they are compostable, which is nice, we guess, but a bit like saying you can throw your old Rembrandt into the recycling bin when you are done with it; who would compost something this gorgeous?

We have three new toys in the Dryad line. (A dryad is a woodland nymph, in case you were wondering.) The first is the Dryad Wooden Butt-Plug. We’re particularly enthusiastic about it because it performs double duty: it can be used as a perfectly normal butt-plug by either male or female participants, but it also can be used for prostate stimulation by those so equipped. The prostate attachment also serves as a base to keep it from disappearing, and you could even use the small end as a warm-up toy for those who want to start with something finger-sized.

The next tree in the forest is the Dryad Wooden Ergonomic G-spot Dildo. This toy has an extremely clever solution to the Flying Dildo Problem: You get your nice slippery toy all nice and lubed up, and you grab it with lust in your eyes, and  . . . zing, off into the nice laundry basket. Very bad. Not good. Why don’t they make these things with a handle?

This one has a handle! Genius. It has a grip end that you can get your fingers into, and a bloopy end for business. Having a firm purchase makes it easier to guide to particularly locations, like, just for example, the G-spot (you probably guessed that from the name). And it looks beautifully innocent enough to be on display when not serving your lustful pleasures.

And, in a clearing in the middle, stands the Dryad Flogger with Wooden Butt-Plug Handle. This toy is something of an exception to the “into the bath” rule, of course: The leather falls are not really suitable for splashing about. However, that small concern is nothing compared to the utility of a flogger that carries with it its very own anal (or vaginal) exploratory device. The stop is provided by a nifty bend in the middle rather than a flange, and it could also be used as an organic instant-pony device if left in (not for extended periods, of course). We have not seen a dryad with a pony tail, but why not? Your imagination is the only limit.
