Studies and slave rings

Posted by Tanos on Tue 5 Jun 07, 12:59 AM

My favourite room in the house is my study, but I've never written very much about it.

There are some pictures of it online, notably on the study page of my homesite, showing the edge of my desk, the fireplace and bottom of "The Intercepted Correspondence". The rest of the walls are mostly taken up with five bookcases, a blackboard and a small wardrobe with my SM and Bondage gear. I also have lili and popi's registration certificates, and prints of "Harem Life, Constantinople" and Gerome's "Moorish Bath".

Next to my desk is an unoccupied area of floor about 6 foot square which I intended for short BDSM sessions. It's big enough for practising positions, or for leaning over the desk for a caning, and there's a suspension point in the beam above the centre of it. Last week I added a slave ring in the floor boards directly under the suspension point. Unlike the two wall rings in the cells downstairs, this one folds flat into the wooden floor, as you can see from the picture.

As I managed to position the ring so it's screwed through the floor boards into a joist, so it's extremely solid. Combined with the suspension point, it allows some very inviting positions with submissives stretched out, chained hand and foot on tiptoes.

One thing I've realised recently is that if I didn't have the cellars, and was trying to create a space for BDSM sessions in an upstairs room, a study would still be the way I'd go: it's far more practical to create a study with BDSM furniture and attachment points, than trying to give an ex-bedroom the feel of a dungeon or prison.
