This dildo is best used for penetration when hand-held. It has a significant curve on one end that can be angled to provide g-spot stimulation. The opposite end has a round ball, with what I like to call "the notch", that makes gripping easier.

You can use this alone or with a partner, but I don't think that this would work in a harness. In my experience, the base (or the ball end) is NOT flared enough to stay in a harness. Since it's not flared enough for a harness, I would also advise caution when using this toy for solo anal play!

Since it is a rigid glass object, it is heavy and it is hard. If used for rough thrusting, it could be very painful, and if used orally, beware of the potential for a chipped tooth!

This dildo is made of glass, so it has a very firm, rigid texture. It has a very smooth surface with very little drag, but there is an area of several small nubs/bumps near the curved end.

The nubs add a great deal of stimulation for the vaginal opening, but I find that when I get the curved part to actually hit my g-spot, the nubs are too far inside me to provide the same level of stimulation that I enjoy from the nubs when used for shallow penetration. The dildo is also firm enough that it can be used for clitoral stimulation.

Since this is made of high-quality glass, it is great for temperature play! You can let it sit at room temperature for a cool sensation, place it in the freezer for a few minutes it or warm it up with hot water to mix it up!

The glass also has the added benefit of being safe to use with any type of lubricant. I prefer water-based lubes because I think they add a nice complementary slickness to the already slick surface of the toy.

I love the design of this wand style dildo. Mine is a deep red with white swirls and red nubs. Both ends are clear to add some visual flair. If you were unfamiliar with sex toys, you probably wouldn't peg this as one, maybe just a weird pseudo-octopus paperweight. It is a lovely piece of glass and the level of crafted skill put into this piece is of high quality. There were no seams, chips, cracks, or fractures in the piece.

It's great for solo hand-held use, or for use with a partner. It has a design that fits my hand well and I find it easy to hold, even for long periods of time. The nubs can provide some stimulation for shallow penetration, but they might not be in the right place so that you can also get g-spot stimulation at the same time. The dildo measures 8.5 inches in length, with about 7 of those being insertable. The circumference comes in at 4.25 inches and the diameter is 1.25 inches.

Glass is a heavy material, the dildo weighs 1 pound, so if you are not accustomed to using heavy objects for penetration, beware when you use it. Because it is so heavy, if I don't keep a steady hand on it, it tends to slip out. I do travel with this, but I wrap it very well in my suitcase.

This toy really depends on you (or your partner!) for power! How about that for eco-friendly. It works great for shallow and deep penetration, with or without lube. You could combine this with a vibrator for additional stimulation or use as is.

Since it's a manual toy made of a heavy material, it could become tiresome to use after extended use. If you have never penetrated your partner with a glass toy, take it slow and figure out where their thresholds are with glass. Glass is not a forgiving material and if you rush into penetration, you could hurt your partner or give them discomfort.

This toy is very easy to care for since it is glass. It can be sterilized in a variety of ways, including boiling or dishwasher washing. It is also compatible with any type of lubricant, but I do prefer the feel of a water-based lubricant on the slick texture of the glass.

Storage can be difficult with this if you don't have a padded container for it. Keep this one in a soft place! Check the toy visually before you use it each time and discontinue use immediately if it develops any cracks, chips, breaks, or fractures.

There really wasn't a lot of packaging to speak of. The toy basically came wrapped in a small piece of bubble wrap inside a drawstring pouch. The pouch has zero padding, so I am constantly reusing the single piece of bubble wrap to ensure this stays safe. I may buy a padded pouch for storage, but I do wish this came with something more significant in terms of packaging.
