This dildo is very pretty. It doesn't come across in photographs what a nice piece of glasswork this is. It's smooth and heavy, with great feel in the hand, and has some lovely color laced all of the way through it. The detail work of the smooth head with the slit down the middle is quite pleasing. The gold might be a bit gaudy for some tastes, but it's a sex toy. I can forgive a little gaudiness. My toy had no bubbles or other imperfections to mar it; it is very well constructed.

In the grand scheme of things, this is a very slender dildo indeed. If you're very tentative about dildos, or just prefer to have them be very small, you might appreciate this for vaginal use, but I would suspect that most women would find something this slender a bit forgettable. It's probably too small even for anal for those who are size queens/kings, but I'm on the smaller side, and I very much like it for that purpose; it's not overwhelming, it's just a lovely sensation, and the firmness makes it a different sensation from silicone dildos, and makes it interesting to play with at different angles. The flared base means you can just sit on it and ride it for a while, which is great fun. The texture is slightly ribbed, nothing too extreme or spikey, just nice little ridges that give it an extra bit of feel when you move it inside.

This being a glass dildo, it's very easy to keep clean. I just wash mine with antibacterial soap and water. You can use any lubricant you want with this dildo, of course. Pop it in the refrigerator for cool temperature play or warm it in hot water for the other side; it takes temperature nicely.
