St Andrew's cross

The St Andrew's cross is a cross made of two x-shaped beams. The name St Andrew's Cross goes back to the apostle Andrew, who is said to have died on such a cross in the 4th century. Today, the St Andrew's cross stands in front of railway crossings. However, it also serves as a warning sign of danger in other areas of life. This is why most people are familiar with it, but few associate it with its use in BDSM.

The St Andrew's cross is the bondage cross in the dominatrix studio.

It stands freely in the room or is fixed to the wall and consists of 2 cross-shaped bars with eyelets at all four ends. The sub is bound and tied up with all fours spread out so that he feels at the mercy of the top. These crosses are classic BDSM equipment, made of wood or metal, sometimes decorated, padded or covered with leather and can be found in almost every studio.

It is also known as St Andrew's Cross. Named after the apostle Andrew. Diagonal cross.
