The Amethyst is a borosilicate glass probe that is great for partner play, solo play, vaginal play, anal play, temperature play, or whatever you can dream up!

The curve is a dream, putting the perfect pressure on my g-spot for a perfect, long, shuddering g-spot orgasm!

The unforgiving nature of glass demands your utmost care when using this toy. It would be possible to bruise anally or vaginally with intense thrusting! Use this toy gently at first, until you get the hang of it! I personally enjoy using this toy not for thrusting but rather a rocking motion while the Amethyst presses up on my g-spot.

Glass toys are PERFECT for temperature play. Just keep the dildo under the covers for a few minutes or rinse it under warm water for a body temperature dildo! You can also put it under very cold water or even keep it in the refrigerator for a shockingly cold summer play session! Make sure not to put it in the freezer or in boiling water right before play. You could give yourself or your partner frostbite or burns!

Take particular caution when using this toy anally! There is no flared base to keep a booty from "swallowing" it. Luckily, the curve on this toy is pretty dramatic. Careful and conscious anal play should be no problem for intermediate anal enthusiasts.

The Amethyst is made of 100% borosilicate glass. This is the same material as Pyrex bakeware. Glass is a phenomenal material for sex toys.

Glass is 100% body-safe and non-toxic. No leaching chemicals, no pthalates, no endocrine disruptors, no bad rubber smell, no carcinogens; it's a totally safe material! On Edenfantasys' materials safety scale, glass ranks a ten out of ten; it couldn't possibly be safer!

The material is also completely sterilizable (check out the "Care" section to find out how), which means you can share it without the hassle of condoms! It is non-porous, which means it doesn't harbor microbes the way other materials like jelly might! There is nowhere for bacteria to live inside of the toy!

Allergic? Sensitive skin? Glass will be your new favorite material. It's completely hypoallergenic! Amethyst is a perfect toy for anyone sensitive to textures, smells, and/or tastes. Sensory processing issues can make choosing a toy difficult but the pleasantly weighty, firm, scent-free material is just perfect.

Worried about the glass shattering? An Edenfantasys member put borosilicate glass to the test in this drop test and this temperature test, documenting just how durable this material is.

The smooth texture of glass was a welcome change for me! I'm accustomed to needing to rinse a toy before use because silicone is so sticky! A dildo that isn't covered in cat fur and lint is an incredible innovation as far as I'm concerned. No corn starch dusting necessary with glass; just lube it up and go!

The smoothness of glass also means that there is no drag to this toy. I always need lube with my silicone toys but this one doesn't always need lube! It feels so smooth against the skin.

This toy is double-ended, which means that both ends are safe to insert.

One end is bulged or bubbled. The first bubble is tapered and somewhat bluntly pointed (but not at all uncomfortably pointy) and the second and third the same size. This end is straight, not curved, and ends in a small "lip" about the same diameter as the bubbles. The lip hits my very sensitive vaginal opening in a very pleasurable way but does not prevent the toy from further insertion, so be extremely careful about anal penetration with this toy. The size and shape of this toy make it unlikely that anal play would be dangerous but there is no base or lip to prevent the body from swallowing this toy.

The second end is for g-spot play. This end has no texture at all, just one "head" bulb at the tip. This end is slightly more pointed than the bubbles and the "shaft" is much narrower. This end of the toy features a dramatic curve.

I tend to prefer very narrow toys. Luckily, this toy is absolutely perfect for me girth-wise. Lovers of the popular beginner dildos such as the Tantus Acute, the Lelo Billy, and other 1 1/4" diameter toys will be very pleased by this size. If you love girthy dongs like the Johnny or the Lone Star, you may find the size disappointingly narrow. The Amethyst is on the small and narrow end of the spectrum and may not work for people who prefer their toys queen-sized.

The design is brilliant. I highly recommend this toy as an ergonomic choice for people who experience arm pain during masturbation. I have mild repetitive motion stress in my arms. When I try to provide firm pressure to my g-spot with just my fingers, I often feel like my arm is caving in on itself. The angle of the Amethyst allows a much more comfortable access to the roof of the vagina and g-spot. The design's ability to help me relax while I'm masturbating leaves me time to focus on my other erogenous zones.

According to Kynky Kitty, "The total length used by this non-realistic glass marvel is 7 1/2" (direct length without following the curve), where 3 1/2" of that is taken by the bubbled side, and 4" for the curved one. The bubble side has a diameter of 1 1/8" at the first bubble, and 1 1/4" at the others. At the curved side, the diameter at the tip is 1 1/8" as well and 3/4" for the shaft."

The really fantastic performance of this toy is due to its shape and material. Glass is firm enough to stroke the g-spot directly. The curve is engineered to hit exactly the right spot. If you have difficulty finding your g-spot, this toy will probably help you. I am learning a lot about my body through this toy, as it is very different in shape than any other toy I've owned.

Many people "squirt" when using a toy like this!

Glass is a dream to care for and maintain. Simply wash your Amethyst in soap and water. It couldn't be easier! If you prefer toy wipes or toy cleaner, those will work with this toy as well. Glass is compatible with all lubes, so don't worry about interactions. Silicone-based, water-based, and even oil-based (not compatible with latex condoms or vaginal use) will help your Amethyst glide in and out of wherever you want it to.

To sanitize glass, you can either boil or bleach.

boil sanitize:
Heat water in pot until there is a rolling boil (lots of bubbles) and boil for three minutes.

bleach sanitize:
Prepare a little 10% bleach to 90% water solution. Wipe the toy down with it and let it dry.

The Amethyst came in the standard SSA packaging - a thin red unpadded velvet pouch wrapped in bubble wrap. The bubble wrap was thick; I don't think it could damage in shipping even if it was chucked at the ground.

On the plus side, a simple red velvet pouch with no logo on it is tasteful and elegant. The drawstring is a huge strike against it. There is no mechanism to keep the pouch shut. In order to keep the Amethyst from falling out, a knot needs to be tied in the string! Another strike is the thinness of the material. This offers absolutely no protection against other glass toys banging into it in storage. I recommend supplementing this pouch with a padded pouch. DIY or get an affordable padded pouch here on Edenfantasys - one that has a toggle to keep it shut.

This is in my top three toys of all-time.

This toy is perfect for me. It fits my anatomy completely. I prefer narrow toys, so I love the size. Girth-lovers will find this toy isn't very filling. For me, however, it's just right! The curve is just right to hang onto the other end as a handle. It's two toys in one, a safe material, and gives intense and powerful g-spot orgasms - what's not to love?
