candyThere are a lot of different sex toy materials out there and most of them generate little to no reactions when people hear about them. Glass is another story. Usually even a mention of glass toys makes people cringe and ask "isn't it going to break?" I feel as if I can see inside their heads for that moment as they imagine themselves using a toy, only to have it break like a cheap wine glass inside of them.I'm here to tell you that's absolutely not going to happen. Most glass that breaks is glass made out of thin layers (like wine glasses). Thicker glass, like Pyrex mixing bowls for instance, won't be as likely to break if you knock it over on a counter-top. If you drop it on a cement floor, then maybe. Thicker glass (and solid glass) are very resistant to the kinds of easy shattering that we think of when we think of glass.Enter, glass dildos. Made out of either Pyrex or the kinds of glass that hand-blown vases and other objects are made of, these toys certainly don't fall into the wine glass category. They are heavy and solid and if you try to break them using your arms, you'll have no success. If your vagina is stronger than that, I'd like to meet you!cherryGlass has some special characteristics that make it worth using: the weight of glass feels different internally than a hard plastic or a silicone sex toy. The smoothness of the surface is number one (along with stainless steel), add a little bit of lube and you've got a very slick toy.With most glass you can also warm or cool it for some awesome temperature play. And, they look sexy and amazing - just looking at the glass toys makes me feel hot and adventurous and that's a great way to feel.If you haven't tried out a glass toy before, I recommend one of our candy colored dildos or the Archer Wand. Both are great for G-spotting and the Archer Wand would also be great for the prostate. If you're looking for something even fancier, check out the Cherry dildo.
