Another great piece by SSA. Brilliantly colored and wonderfully textured, this piece could easily stimulate an inexperienced user, as well as one that's well versed in toys. Definitely a must in any glass lovers collection. Its fun textures can create some unique sensations and it's great for G-spot play!

Pros
great shape and design, g-spot stimulation, easy care and cleaning
The Charming Duet is another fantastic piece produced by SSA Glass. This is a textured dual ended dildo. The curved ends are ideal for internal stimulation such as G-spot play. The slim size is non-intimidating for someone that is new to glass or toys in general, while the included texture could please a more well-versed user. I can't recommend this for anal use because it lacks a base, but a vibrator enhancer could be attached to add the flared base to make it safe.
The slim size may deter some people, but it packs a huge punch. Glass feels a bit thicker than it actually is because it has no give. This can be enjoyed during a solo session and can be even better being teased by a partner with its texture. Though, when you're letting someone else do the work with the Charming Duet, be aware of vigorous thrusting because firm materials can create bruising around the cervix.
This piece is completely water friendly, so it can be brought along in the shower or pool with no worries! Glass is a great material for temperature play!
If you prefer a vibrating piece, it's nothing a little vibrating c-ring won't fix. They fit quite nicely on the Charming Duet.
The Charming Duet is made of solid borosilicate glass which is also known as Pyrex. It's a solid 10 on the safety scale! Much kitchenware is made of Pyrex! This makes this piece extremely resistant. I've seen a few users that are new to glass express that they fear using it because it could possible break inside of them while thrusting. Because it's made of this type of glass, it's extremely resistant to pressure, so it's really not anything to be concerned about. One of the only things that is going to break it, besides throwing it off a multistory building, is rapid temperature change. While putting it in warm or cool water is okay for temperature play, freezing it and heating it repeatedly may break it. Fortunately, it won't break in to a million little pieces; it will more than likely break in half.
Its lovely texture creates fantastic sensations. Each curved end has its own set of little raised nubs and waves and ripples surrounding the shaft. While it's covered in textures, it's not too pronounced to cause any kind of discomfort, for me at least. There's no drag what-so-ever because it is so slick and smooth. Any type of lubricant can be used with this piece. Nothing is going to degrade it.
This toy is completely tasteless and odorless.
I love the way the Charming Duet looks. It's a brilliant cobalt blue and its waves and nubs are a little bit darker blue. Like I mentioned before, the size can please most any user. Size queens may not love the circumference on this. Mine came with no blemishing and minimal air bubbles on the inside.
Length: 8 inches
Circumference: 3.5
Diameter: 1 inch
Its slight curves on each end are great for G-spot targeting without being too abrasive or create catching on your pubic bone like some other more hooked curve toys can do. If you have yet to discover your G-spot, the Charming Duet might be a good place to start.
Since it has a more whimsical look and not realistic, I'd call it somewhat discreet. Its size makes it travel friendly. As long as it's stored properly, you can take it anywhere with you!
Of course, this toy performs well. The textures create nothing but stimulation. Using it in a twisting motion creates a very unique feeling. I use silicone lubricant with this and a little bit goes a long way. Using too much can create it to get way too slippery because it's so smooth, so water-based would work just as well. Like I mentioned before, it's great for G-spot play, but its gentle curves may not work for everyone.
A quality cock ring that vibrates pairs very nicely with this because it's not a huge piece, so the vibrations carry through it nicely. This can also make it an awesome clit stimulator.
If glass and/or texture is a priority, this one will fit the bill. It's easily one of my favorite glass pieces. The Charming Duet is going to stay in my "good" box of toys.
This piece is extremely low maintenance. There's not a ton of nooks or crannies that you have to deal with while cleaning. It's easily cleaned with soap and water, or it can be placed in a dishwasher. I use my favorite California Exotics toy cleaner, or if it's late and I don't want to put in any effort I'll wipe it down with my Eden wipes. When using the wipes to clean glass it can dry with spotting, so you'll have to polish it if you like it looking pristine. It can also be disinfected by boiling.
It doesn't take up a ton of space, so it can be stored most anywhere. It comes with no instructions, but it's pretty self explanatory. Packaging is very minimal. It comes with its own drawstring storage bag. It's not padded but works just fine. If you're going to travel with it, I'd recommend wrapping it in something like bubble wrap, then slipping it in the pouch to be extra safe to keep it from acquiring scratches.

Follow-up commentaryI still like it1 month after original review
While I don't use this as often as some other toys, it is definitely one of my favorite glass pieces. The textures are nice and it's just a beautiful piece all around. This one actually gets used as a massager by my S/O.
