I was super excited to get my hands on one of glass toys from Pipedream’s Icicles line.  I love glass and that is all the reason I really needed to be excited about it.

Icicles No. 15 is a glass dildo that comes with a bullet vibrator.  It is 7 inches long and less than 1 inch wide. The dildo itself is essentially a curved beaded stick with a nubbed texture.   On the handle end, it has a loop (that you can insert the bullet into) and and two flared appendages that allow for safe anal play. The color is a clear iridescent amber.  The bullet is powered by a wired remote control and requires 3 AAA batteries that are not included.

No. 15 didn’t have  enough girth for me. That isn’t necessarily the toy’s fault, but I prefer that filled sensation when it comes to penetrative toys. I make exceptions for dildos and vibes that really target the g-spot (i.e. Ella). I was hoping this would be the case, but sadly it wasn’t. It has what appears to be an awesome g-spot curve, but it just didn’t quite give me the stimulation I was looking for. The angle was just too wide. What I did like was the beaded/nubbed texture, which was best observed during long slow thrusts.  The thick beads with their narrow connection stimulated my vaginal opening, while the nubs stimulated my vaginal wall.  It definitely made me want to explore this type of stimulation further.  I need a new word for stimulate.

The plastic bullet vibrator is small and super high powered.  It has 10 different speed/vibration patterns including a few steady vibration settings and a variety of pulsation patterns, each with their own unique personality.  While the bullet packs quite the punch, it is super buzzy and a bit noisy.  Like I said earlier, you can insert the bullet in the loop, but the vibrations don’t transfer that well to the end of the dildo.  No. 15 just isn’t the toy for internal vibration.  I tried to see if it would be useful for clitoral stimulation while inserted in the loop, but it didn’t work out.  Your best bet is to not even bother inserting it into the loop and to just stick the bullet vibrator right on your clit.  This is as long as you like super buzzy vibrations.  However, it does light up and flash according the setting it is on.

Cleaning was easy.  I just washed the dildo in the sink with mild soap and water.  I wiped the bullet down with a soapy cloth.  It isn’t waterproof!  Your water based lube of choice will work just fine.

I didn’t fall in love with Icicles No. 15, but if you like slender dildos and high powered vibrations, you would probably enjoy it.  I imagine it would be a fun anal toy.  It is narrow, but glass doesn’t give, so I wouldn’t recommend it to anal beginners.  I am appreciative that that it has pushed me to further explore that whole vaginal wall/opening stimulation thing.  I rather enjoyed it and am looking forward to playing with more toys that do the same.

Glass dildos are among the most popular sex toys on the market.  Ever since their appearance on a variety of HBO specials, they have been flying off the shelves like hot cakes.  Not that I have ever seen a hot cake fly.  I only recently discovered all of the gloriousness that glass has to offer.  I love it and you will too. 

Many consider glass dildos to be a staple in their toy collection, however many women cringe at the thought of putting glass inside their beloved pink parts. 

Thought process: glass –> broken glass –> vagina –> no thanks. 

This isn’t a completely irrational thought process.  However, glass dildos are not made from the same glass that your dishes are made of.  They are made from borosilicate, acrylic or lucite.  Borosilicate is also known as Pyrex.  It is considered to be a soft glass, but it is by no means fragile.  It is in its soft molten state when it is being molded and sculpted.  Pyrex is tempered, which means it is put through a process of extreme heating and cooling.  This makes it 4 to 5 times stronger than standard glass and will not shatter.  It is possible to chip your Pyrex dildo, but highly unlikely.  Acrylic is also an extremely durable shatterproof material.  A crack may occur, but is also unlikely.

Does that ease your mind?  It should.  Glass dildos and your vagina can and should be friends.  Good friends.  And not just because they won’t spontaneously explode during an intense solo session. 

Glass dildos are oh so satisfying.  Since they are firm, they are perfect for g-spot and prostate stimulation.  Once a dab of lube is applied, the smooth surface makes for pleasurable external warm up.  Glass is also ideal for temperature play.  Submerse in warm or cool water and in no time you can add a whole new element to toy time.  Why temperature play?  It doesn’t take a scientist to know that warmth simply feels nice.  It encourages the clitoris to engorge quickly, which induces natural lubrication and heightens arousal.  Placing a cold object on your naughty bits may sound less than sexy, but it does serve a purpose.  Cold can act as a reset button for the clitoris.  It calms the nerves and constricts the blood vessels.  Many women find that this gets them ready for round 2 in a matter of minutes.  Some simply enjoy the sensation.  Never warm your glass dildo in the microwave!  

Glass feels great, but you should definitely know your dildo size.  If you purchase one that is too large, your pretty new toy will be useless to you.  There is no give when it comes to glass.  Think about it.

When purchasing a glass dildo you are also purchasing a little handmade work of art.  While they can be the cause of many fabulous orgasms, they also look gorgeous just sitting on the coffee table.  

Glass toys are nonporous and 100% hypoallergenic so there is no need to worry about any allergic reactions.  They are totally body safe and perfect for those who have latex or other allergies.  Avoid painted glass.  Any color should be embedded in the glass.  Another awesome feature – you can use either water based or silicone based lubricant.  Unlike silicone toys, the silicone lube will not eat away at the toy.  Since glass is nonporous, it will not absorb the lube.  A little really does go a long way here. 

If treated with care, your glass dildo will last a life time.  Simply wash with soap and water.  Store your toy in the padded pouch that most manufacturers include with your dildo.  There are no pores for bacteria to hide in, so glass will not naturally break down and become an oddly shaped gelatinous mess.

Glass dildos can get pretty pricey, but you can find a quality glass dildo for around $30.  Don Wands makes a ton of attractive and satisfying glass products that won’t break the bank.  No excuses!  Get your glass dildo.  You can thank me later.

I don’t have much to compare when it comes to glass sex toys.  I am rather inexperienced in this corner.  I can admit it, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t know what I like.  Guess what, I like the Don Wands Nubby Fat Head glass dildo.  Emphasis on Fat Head.

Its blue/ green ocean-esque appearance makes it lovely to look at.  It stands proud and beautiful on its flared base, waiting to please.  Looks are of little importance when it’s time for business, but I am a sucker for a pretty toy.  That wasn’t the only reason I chose Fat Head.  Knowing that glass is hard and in no way pliable, I thought I was safe with 7 inches in length and a shaft with a 1 inch diameter.  I didn’t want to leave myself wanting more, so I knew the 1 ½ inch wide head would take care of my need for a little fulfillment.  I was right.

Fat Head is in no way made for size queens.  It is just right for those who like small to medium sized dildos with added plumpness.  The head, my favorite part, tapers to a dull point.  The nubs on this dildo add to the visual appeal, but I can’t honestly say they affected my experience one way or the other.  The flared base made handling easy, especially when lubricant was thrown into the mix.  The flared base would also make the Fat Head suitable for anal play.  This glass dildo is simple in shape, but the slender shaft and bulbous tip make it an ooooh so pleasing product. 

Don Wands Nubby Fat Head comes with a storage pouch that could double as a comfy pillow for a really tiny person.  It is soft, cushiony and I like knowing it will keep my precious glass sex toy safe.

This dildo is definitely one that will live on my stand for quite a while.  I can’t wait to acquire some of Fat Head’s friends and further investigate all of the gloriousness that is glass.  Well all may be pushing it, but it doesn’t hurt to try.  We all have to have goals, right?   

Glass is great: It is ideal for temperature play and warms to your body temperature quickly.  You can use any lubricant that is desired.  Since it is nonporous, it won’t absorb your lube so a little goes a long way.  Glass is also phthalates free, hypoallergenic and ridiculously easy to clean – soap and water or in the dishwasher.

Featured Product for Couples, the Nubbed Tumbler Pyrex Dildo lends itself to couples’ use and play time fun.  Ladies, just lie back, relax and let your partner use the handle to rotate the dildo and send waves of stimulation through you.  This unique sensation will have you spellbound by the spiraling g-spot titillation.  The nubs on the base of the dildo will go sliding across your labia and clit at the same time.  Also happening simultaneously, your eyes will role to the back of your head and you will begin to speak in a language unknown by any other human.  Just in case you want to know what to expect.

As with all Pyrex toys, it is body safe and is perfect for temperature play.  Heat it up in warm water, or cool it off in the freezer.  Your little nerve endings won’t know what to do with themselves.  Also, it will be easy going with the lube of your choice.  Since glass is nonporous, it won’t absorb it before the fun starts.

However, a friend did give me a bit of advice on this dildo.  When excitement is at its peak, everything gets wet and wild, and bodies start to writhe.  Be careful!  The glass will be extra slippery and the flared base may go too far.  Pulling it out will be far less than comfortable.  Keep this in mind so you can enjoy this toy without any painful interruptions.

This 4 inch Pyrex dildo includes a small handle, so that the dildo can be turned while inside. The small clear nubs at the base of the shaft will give extra stimulation especially while being rotated with the handle.

Pyrex dildos are very easy to clean. Just use plain soap and water.  The material is non-porous, hypoallergenic, easily sterilized, durable and works with all lubes.  This dildo measures 4 inches of insertable length.  The handle makes it easy to insert, release and maneuver the dildo.

Makes a wonderful display piece. The handcrafted glass looks like a striking work of art.

We have recently increased our selection of glass dildos with Don Wands glass products.  They are absolutely gorgeous and would even make for nice mantle pieces.  I have never owned one, so I would much rather see what they have to offer along the pleasure department.  Each dildo comes with its own padded pouch.  You know I am a sucker for accessories!  It is also a great perk because I am prone to drop anything breakable.

This beautifully crafted wand is constructed around a red, orange, blue and white helix ribbon. The smooth 1 1/4 diameter wand features a 1 1/2 diameter real tip that sits atop a curved shaft and is approximately 7 1/2 in length.

Don Wands Glass Pleasure Wands each come with a padded pouch and a sample pack of WET Platinum Lubricant. Don Wands are made from borosilicate, which is more resistant to breaking than most traditional glass formulations. They can be warmed or cooled to your preferred comfort zone and they maintain temperature for an extended period of time.
