<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"--><!-- more than 4 paragraphs -->OTTAWA: A Saudi businessman has purchased what has been described by the Canadian seller as the world's most expensive adult novelty item - a solid 18K gold penis enlarger worth nearly US$50,000 (S$72,000).
X4 Labs, a Canadian manufacturer of medical devices, received the unorthodox request and recruited a Montreal custom jeweller to help with its design and construction.
'This male health accessory is the most expensive traction device ever produced and will likely become a historical benchmark for the adult novelty industry,' the company said in a statement.
Little is known about the buyer, except that he lives in Jeddah.
His glitzy new penis enlarger is being encrusted at his request with 40 diamonds and several rubies and is to be delivered by armoured car in October, said X4 Labs co-owner Rick Oh.
Saudi law bans the import of sex toys, but the company insists its product is a United States government-certified medical device. Such devices normally retail for less than US$400. But this custom order is expected to cost about US$47,000, he added.
'It's an unusual request,' said Mr Oh. 'We didn't take it seriously at first, but once he sent us a deposit, we had to agree to it. Obviously, there were giggles initially when we presented our project to a jeweller and asked him for help.'
The seemingly lavish device was actually conceived for a practical purpose, he explained.
'We were approached by the customer who insisted on a solid gold version of our product because he claimed to have a severe skin allergy to stainless steel.'
Later, the buyer asked to add diamonds and rubies to it.
The company now intends to offer all customers custom designs for its male novelty devices, although it states that it is 'uncertain as to whether this will become a trend'.
