World's most expensive condom: A 200-year-old condom was recently declared the world's most expensive condom, selling for £460 (approximately Rs 44,000). Unlike modern latex condoms, this historical contraceptive was made from sheep intestines. It dates back to the 18th or 19th century.
At that time, condoms were made from the intestines of animals like sheep, pigs, calves and goats. At that time, only rich people used these condoms. After the 19th century, when cheap rubber condoms became widely available, the use of animal intestines was discontinued…
The condom, measuring 19 cm (7 inches), was invented in France. Then the auction took place. “This ancient condom made from sheep intestines is a remarkable piece of art,” auction platform Catawiki said. “It sheds light on the evolution of contraception and our history.”
