Why Walnut Is an Elegant Choice for Wooden Dildos

Looking for a wooden dildo with a noble look? Walnut is dark and finely grained, and it feels warm in your hand. In this post we show you what walnut has going for it and why it is a good choice for your next dildo.

The Noble Look of Walnut

Walnut captivates with its warm, dark brown coloring and fine grain. The tones range from warm brown to near-black – every piece is unique as the natural patterns vary.

The classic, almost traditional look gives your dildo a timeless elegance that other materials can't match. Every piece is made by hand in Austria so the walnut grain can really show.

Durability & Stability

Walnut is a moderately hard, tough wood that works well. With proper care, your walnut dildo stays in top condition for years.

All Gendoras wooden dildos are sealed with a lacquer tested to DIN EN 71-3, which protects the surface and keeps it smooth. Check it before each use and stop using the dildo if the lacquer is damaged.

Warm Feel & Comfort

A major plus of walnut: its natural warmth. Unlike metal or glass, it quickly adapts to your body temperature and feels pleasant against the skin.

The smooth, lacquered surface provides additional comfort and a silky-smooth glide. Especially combined with water-based lubricant, it creates an intense, long-lasting experience.

FAQ

Walnut has a darker, finer grain and appears more elegant. Olive wood has a livelier, more contrasting grain with gold and brown tones. Both are sealed with a lacquer tested to DIN EN 71-3.

The lacquer is tested to DIN EN 71-3, the toy safety standard that limits how much of certain elements, such as lead, may migrate out of a material. Nobody can promise that every skin tolerates it, so if you are prone to allergies, check with your doctor first.

No. Wooden dildos aren't flexible enough for strap-ons. For that we recommend our silicone dildos in 5 hardness levels.
