One item likely to set pulses racing at an auction today is an ivory-clad Victorian intimacy gadget, an antique from a wealthy Anglo-Irish family.

The historical period may not be widely known for its relaxed attitude to intercourse but they were actually invented by Victorian doctors at the time as a way of curing 'hysterical' women.

And this hand-carved design, made of ivory, is thought to have been createdby a husband for his wife in the 1840s, complete with a hidden receptacle where she could keep a lock of his hair.

This ivory piece is expected to be sold for between €500-€800 at Matthews auctioneers in County Meath, Ireland.

It is described in the brochure as an 'antique, carved ivory ladies companionin scarlet lined leather upholstered carry box with inset bevelled glass panel'.

The piece has been carved to show folds of skin and has a heart carved at the base where the woman's finger would have been in place.

It even has a hollowed-out area where she could keep a lock of her lover's hair.

Racine pictured in her coffin.


Posting the pictures of Racine in her coffin on Facebook, Rolyn wrote:

'Today, request fulfilled and there all I see is you, smiling.

'On the way to the sunset, friends and family gathered and bid their last farewell to Racine who now sleeps beautifully forever.

'You will always remain in our hearts.'

The 20-year-old is prepared before her funeral.

Her final request was to 'die beautiful'.

Racine pictured before falling ill to bone cancer.

A young cancer victim has had her final wish to 'die beautiful' granted.

Racine Pregunta, 20, from Davao City, in the southern Philippines, died last week after a battle with osteosarcoma.

As she knew her last days were approaching the young woman decided to make plans for her funeral.

She is pictured lying in a white coffin, wearing an off-the shoulder white dress and floral headband with impeccable make-up.

Every detail was planned by Racine herself and carried out by her family.

Her sister Rolyn Pregunta said Racine said on April 12, five days before her death to bone cancer, that if she was to die, she wanted to 'die BEAUTIFUL'.

The request was a reference to a famous Filipino film in which a transgender woman dies while being crowned at a beauty pageant.

The character's final request was to be dressed up as a different celebrity on every day of her wake.

Rolyn said her sister, who had done modelling shoots in the past, requested a 'personal make-up artist' to prepare her for the funeral.

She also wanted to wear something violet, blue and mint green.And last week she was buried on top of her father's burial plot.

KillerBeauty:
What do you expect them to do take the stairs? Most of their offices are situated in top floors in skyscrapers. Taking stairs is impossible. Unlike the high rise buildings we have in Nigeria where you can attempt to climb stairs not in New York.

Buildings that rises to like 50 - 80 floor and your office is above 60th floor.

The stairs are there for emergency evacuation, rescue for firefighters in case of fire accident.
