Description
Meranti Spanking Paddle. Meranti is a far eastern species. Sometimes called ‘Phillapine Mahogany’, there is actually no relation between the species. Meranti is a light, durable timber upon which a very smooth finish can be obtained. The pretty grain is figured and often contains contrasting gold flecks, similar in nature to Teak. This paddle is an example of ‘because I can’… taking a pretty piece of grain and working round it to produce a one-off piece. This Meranti Spanking Paddle is traditional in shape and has an almost plain appearance. However, a combination of light weight and large impact area will provide a sharp, stingy punishment. An implement which will surely convey the desired message.
The length, including handle, is approximately 34cm, the width approximately 11cm and the thickness around 2.5cm. All sizes are approximate as it is hand cut and hand finished. The paddle you receive will be the very same Meranti Spanking Paddle you see in the picture.
The paddle is finished with several coats of a food-safe mineral oil. To care for your paddle, just wipe down with an antiseptic wipe and allow to air dry. An occasional application of food safe oil, wiped on with a cloth or paper towel, will ensure the finish is maintained.
