This is a visually stunning, and beautifully textured double ended glass dildo perfect for vaginal use. It lacks a flare of any sort, or a base to make it truly safe for anal penetration. It doesn't curve at all, so it may seem a little harsh to some. But the fairly dainty girth should make it comfortable for most. As with all glass toys, some care should be taken with how vigorous you are, especially if a partner is using it on you, since that could result with some unpleasant bruising! If trying to use it as a more traditional double ended dildo, the length will be problematic, since it is almost exactly 9" long, it won't quite reach properly.

Slightly chilly to the touch, lacking any scent or taste, this Pyrex glass dong has a slick spiral down one side that results in some rather luscious ridges. And on the other side it has raised bumps splayed across it. Both tips have a head in a more realistic style, with a pronounced edge of the "glans" on it. The texturing everywhere on this toy is very noticeable, and it has a high possibility of being overwhelming to some users. Even as a person who tends to prefer a thicker girth on my toys, I could feel the spirals and the dots, depending on which end I used. I wouldn't suggest the Royal Duet for someone new to toys, instead I think those who already have a few toys could get a lot of enjoyment from it.

I love the design on this toy so much! Apart from the obviously phallic head shaped tip on each end, it looks like a work of art. The raised bits are a gorgeous deep cobalt, while the core portion is a simple crystalline clearness. I was pleasantly surprised with how well it rubbed me the right way since it's completely straight and rigid, as well. The size should play very nicely with most users as well. I wouldn't recommend trying to travel with it. Though you could pack it well with clothing to pad it, I would be afraid that due to the generous length that it might somehow be bent the wrong way and break.

As a woman who tends to prefer a bit larger than average toy for penetrative pleasure, I found the Royal stimulated me the best if I used it after teasing my clit, and before the use of any other penetrative toys. The more slender girth really doesn't stimulate me the right way otherwise.

As with any glass toy, you can pop this baby in your dish washer, or use soap and water, or toy cleaner. It comes with a velvety pouch which I am also using for storage. Due to the wonderful nature of glass you can use the Duet with any lube of your choice, as well.
