The Amber Wave is an amazing little piece of erotic glass art! While obviously designed as a sex toy, this little slithering serpent is also beautiful enough to set on a coffee table or display in a decorative fashion. That said, it also succeeds with flying colors in its original intent as a dual ended dildo. At 9" long, it is not anywhere near long enough to use simultaneously with a partner, but both ends of the toy can be used for different sensations. This toy is not designed to be used anally do to the lack of a flared base, but is perfect for vaginal insertion. It also can be used for external stimulation on the labia and clit, and the bumps and curves of the glass create nice stimulation even when not inserted internally. The interesting shape and texture of this piece make it a great toy for beginners as well as glass afficianados. While glass is an amazingly safe material for toys, there are a few precautions to always keep in mind: be careful of hard thrusting as you can bruise your cervix or pelvic bone, and be careful holding onto your slithering snake especially in the shower or if coated in slippery lube, as it will break if dropped from a distance.

This friendly little serpent is made from Pyrex glass. This type of glass is specifically made to be a "safe" glass that will not shatter or splinter. In fact it is VERY hard to break this glass. If you drop it from a height onto a hard surface it is possible to break it, but it will break into large non jagged chunks. I have dropped several of my glass toys and have yet had one be damaged in any way. Being that it is glass, there is no taste or smells of any kind. The Amber Wave has lots of texture, including bends and nubs, as well as the slightly bulbous end. The shape is ideal for g-spot play and the nubs and texture feel amazing internally and externally. I love glass, and have many glass toys, and can happily recommend this toy those who are new to glass as well as those who already know and enjoy it!

Some of the pictures look like a rose or flower, but this piece is designed to look like a slithering snake. This is one of the thinnest glass dildos I own, at just 1 1/2" in diameter, but what it lacks in girth it makes up for in shape and texture. The shape of this piece make it one of the very best g-spot toys I have ever owned! The shaft of the toy is wavy, and depending on your anatomy you can adjust it at several different angles to make sure it hits your sweet spot. The nubby texture is enough to feel, but not so much to be overwhelming to most users. The head of the snake is only aprx. 3/4" larger in diameter than the rest of the toy, and can be inserted and enjoyed by even the newest toy users. The toy is discreet in the sense that you can set it right out on your coffee table, and unless someone is very aware of sex toys themselves, they would probably never guess that it was not intended as a piece of decorative art. Glass is also a great material for travel, as it will not set off metal detectors and requires no batteries or accessories. It is also easy to clean when away from home.

I have used and own many glass dildos, but this one quickly has become my favorite! It is very easy to hold onto, which can be an issue with some glass dildos. For me, it is the ultimate g-spot toy. With no effort at all, it hits my g-spot with missile like accuracy. The nubby texture is also perfect for external foreplay on my labia and clit. As with all glass, it is also ideal for temperature play. I am not a huge fan of cold, but oh my how lovely this little snake is when heated up!

Taking care of Pyrex glass toys is a breeze!! As I do not share my toys, I simply clean mine with wipes or soap and water. If you do share toys or are concerned about sterilization, you can boil them, rinse in a 10% bleach solution, or even run them through the dishwasher. The Amber Wave comes with its own storage pouch, so should you not decide to leave it out as an artistic decoration, it is easy to store.

The toy comes wrapped in bubble wrap in its own storage pouch. The pouch I received was a relatively thin red pouch, not the pretty padded pink and purple pouch shown in the photos on EF. I was a bit disappointed to not receive the nicer pouch, but the one I received works well for me and how I store my toys. The pouch does not provide much padding though, and would not protect the toy from ANY rough handling or drops. You may wish to wrap your toy in a cushioning material (maybe a a thick terrycloth wash cloth?) inside the pouch if you are carrying it around or storing it in a way where it may get jostled around at all.
