Information about Glass Dildos

The Details

Glass dildos (and glass vibrators for that matter) are made from hand blown Pyrex glass. Styles for these beautiful creations range from crystal clear and perfectly smooth to brightly colored glass covered with ridges, bumps or swirls. They are works of art that can be appreciated for their beauty as well as their unique feel in the bedroom.

The first question people usually ask about glass dildos is are they safe. The answer is that they are safe as long as they aren't damaged. Fortunately, Pyrex is a very durable glass that is not easily damaged when cared for properly. Chips and cracks are rare, unless you make a habit of dropping the dildo onto hard surfaces such as concrete, or expose it to extreme temperature changes such as taking it directly out of the freezer and dropping it into a pot of boiling water. It doesn't take much to care for a glass dildo - just a bit of common sense.

Cleaning a glass dildo is also very easy. All you need is a little soap and hot water, some rubbing alcohol or a dab of sex toy cleaner - whatever you have handy. Glass, unlike silicone, rubber, jelly or plastic is not affected by most cleaning solutions. Just be sure to avoid harsh abrasives and you'll be fine. A quick rinse with a little soap and water should do the trick.

Besides easy cleaning, glass dildos have a few other nice features. To start, they can be heated or cooled, which is great on a hot summer day or a cold winter's night. The thick glass tends to hold temperature very well so you can count on at least 45 minutes before having to re-heat or cool it down. They're also good for sharing with partners because they aren't porous and are easily sterilized. If you wanted, you could use a glass dildo on a partner, wipe it with rubbing alcohol, and then use it on yourself with no problem. They're also totally inflexible, making them ideal for G-Spot stimulation.

As with most hand-crafted items, glass dildos are expensive. The cost starts around $50 and moves up from there - much more than the average dildo. You can also have one custom made to your exact specifications, which runs about $400 to $500.

Over all, these are unique playthings that offer features not found in other sex toys. From adventurous newcomers to experienced connoisseurs - glass dildos might be worth a second look.
