It's hard to even begin to describe the sensual appeal of a glass dildo. The solid weight of it in your hand, it's ability to warm or cool easily, the slick, smooth feeling of the knob like head as it stretches you while it penetrates.

Seriously...glass is sexy. It's just so powerful and hefty and still delicate-seeming and artistically decorative. I love it.

I wasn't sure about the Dichroic Spiral, with it's slightly curved shaft, large head, and the textured ridges that swirl around the girth of the toy. When I first took it from its box, I was impressed with the craftsmanship and admired the beauty of the colored swirls and the gentle curve of the glass, but also wondered if the ridges would be a distraction, and if so, would they be a pleasant distraction or an uncomfortable one?

I own (and love) a smooth glass toy and just thinking about the way it heats up inside of me and glides in and out so easily, feeling like silk and steel at the same time, makes me instantly wet. It is certainly a favorite of mine.

I was afraid the ridges on the Dichroic Spiral would create an unwelcome friction that I wouldn't enjoy as much. I was still eager to try. I warmed myself up with a silicone-based lube, waiting until I was swollen and slippery before starting to tease myself with the slick rounded head of the toy. It didn't take long before I craved all of it, and once it filled me and warmed up to my body temperature, I realized that the ridges provided a different but pleasurable sensation, interrupting the slippery surface with a texture that provided varied stimulation as it passed in and out. The slight curve meant it exerted pressure on different areas depending on how it was held and with some maneuvering, I was able to get into the perfect position to finish.

I would recommend this toy for anyone who enjoys penetration. If you only orgasm from clitoral contact, you may not appreciate this toy as much. I think it's a beautiful piece and a satisfying toy, the weight and size are perfect and it's nice to look at!
