Luxury Vibrators Make You Feel Like a Million Bucks

What do celebrities Kate Moss and Dita Von Teese have in common? They both purchased a Jimmyjane Little Gold, a luxury vibrator made of 24 karat gold. In the last ten years luxury vibrators have stormed the market. Couture, sophistication, luxury—these words are now being used to describe sex toys, but what can you expect from a high end vibrator?

Today’s top vibrators are characterized by elegant packaging and sophisticated designs—sleek, ergonomic, and elegant craftsmanship render these toys so unlike the vibrators of old that you could easily leave one out on your coffee table and no one would be the wiser. Premium vibrators are made of top-notch materials: silicone will be the material of choice for toys under $300, while gold and other metals (some encrusted with diamonds) will set you back several thousand dollars. State of the art engineering is de rigueur, so high end vibrators will most likely be rechargeable, waterproof, and house small but strong motors. Finally, expect the latest in technological wizardry—programmable speeds and patterns, or music- and voice-activated features, are among some of the recent technological advancements in vibrators. The Minna vibrator is squeeze-responsive, the Form 2 by Jimmyjane features flexible ears that focus intense vibrations on the clit, and the We-Vibe 3 offers hands-free vibration during partner sex.

If you’re shopping for a luxury toy, try these brands: Jimmyjane, Lelo, We-Vibe, Je Joue, Incognito, and nJoy, or else check out our helpful guide to finding the right vibrator.
