How We Picked the Products
I picked 34 of the most review-worthy glass dildos for the review. Most of these toys were models I’ve used over the years, while I selected others from the recommendations of a questionnaire I passed around the office last week. With the dildos ready for review, I made a list of test criteria that we could measure on a scale from 0 to 100. These included:
- Design. A good product must have an ergonomic design tailored to simplify handling and penetration while realizing the sexual desire – anal, G-spot, or P-spot stimulation. I recommended the team analyze the dildo’s goal and ensure the design aligns ideally. We studied features like rounded heads, flared bases, and curved shafts.
- Stimulations. Based on the user’s experience level, you can choose between textured or smooth glass toys. I recommended having the best of both worlds to give everyone a taste of their desired dildos.
- Build Quality. As always, quality is an essential part of the experience. I only selected products made from the highest-grade borosilicate glass. Unlike the cheap alternatives, borosilicate is shatter-resistant and very durable. Especially for such a delicate material, the build quality is one of the most important considerations.
- Comfort. Unfortunately, glass is a stiff material, and unlike silicone, it doesn’t bend to pressure. For this reason, we considered lots of slimline glass dildos to ensure everyone, including the beginners, would be comfortable.
With the essential consumer motivations spelled out, I distributed the test samples among the sex experts in the team for a 30-day testing exercise. I also used the time to test the dildos and research deeper into other people’s opinions on the same and customer reviews from some of the most significant vendors.
During testing, we rated each test criterion on a percentage scale from 0% (Worst) to 100% (Best). We then calculated the overall score using different weighted metrics depending on the importance of the test criteria. Half the total rating comes from Stimulations (25%) and Design (25%). After that comes Build Quality (10%), Comfort (10%), and Price & Value (5%).
After the exercise, the team returned with the findings, and it was time for me to analyze everything. I also enlisted the services of our other sexual health writers to make sense of the report and draw conclusions from the same. And so, after more than 35 hours of deliberation and in-depth research, we believe these are this year’s 10 best glass dildos.

1. Chrystalino Gallant: Our Overall Test Winner
Why we love Chrystalino Gallant:
In this review of glass dildos, the Chrysalino Gallant stands apart from the competition. This totally versatile toy boasts a design that not only feels amazing but also doubles for anal and vaginal play – making it ideal for lovers of both g-spot and p-spot play.
The first thing I noticed after receiving the Chrystalino Gallant in the mail was the packaging, which included a super secure box and foam interior.
When ordering glass toys in the mail, their fragility always worries me, so it’s nice to know that the disappointment of receiving a broken toy is highly unlikely with the Chrystalino Gallant.
The glass body of this toy definitely feels heavy in hand, which adds that weighty feeling that many people have come to crave from non-silicone toys. Made from borosilicate glass, it’s easy to see that this toy will withstand even the most intense orgasms without fear of breaking.
Created with a gentle curve, the Chrystalino Gallant is a match made in heaven for folks who love stimulating those extra-sensitive spots. Our panel members found it relatively easy to access their p and g-spots, with some even using it to track down the ever-allusive a-spot.
The bulbous body also provided a stretching sensation that kept our team coming back for seconds. We all agreed that the toy’s tip was the perfect combination of pointed for easy entry while being wide enough to apply a delectable pressure to the various spots in the anus and vagina.
The Chrystalino Gallant is anal-safe thanks to the super flared base, and the two bulbs along the body will challenge even the most experienced anal enthusiasts. I loved that, as with all glass toys, I was free to use my favorite silicone-based lubes without worry – which made it easier to take this toy’s full 4.3” circumference.
After testing this glass dildo, it’s easy to see why Chrystalino’s entire collection was nominated for the prestigious XBIZ Award as a sex toy of the year.
Minor issues found during testing:
Regarding the Chrystalino Gallant, my only complaint is related to the toy’s base. Although it works well for anal play, holding onto it during penetrative vaginal play is difficult, and if you need time to reach orgasm, your hand might give out before you reach your big O.
Because the base is round instead of the asymmetrical teardrop shape you find on many other toys, I also struggled to keep the curve aimed in the direction I needed for g-spot stimulation.
Why Chrystalino Gallant is the best glass dildo:
Despite having a couple of minor design flaws, there’s no denying this is a well-designed toy, which earned itself a score of 96% from our panel members.
- Design: From tip to base, you can tell a lot of thought went into creating this toy. The gentle curve, bulbous body, and ideal insertable length all combine to provide a mouth-watering sensation.
- Versatility: We love a toy you can use for both vaginal and anal play. It’s about as close to a 2-for-1 deal as you’ll get from sex toys.
- Value: Coming in at a very budget-friendly $31.99, the Chrystalino Gallant is well within the budget of many. Considering everything you can do with this toy, it’s a steal of a deal.
Features:
- Material: Glass
- Length: 7”
- Color: Blue
- Circumference: 4.3”
Pros:
- Toy’s curve is ideal for g-spot and prostate play.
- Made from high-quality, shatterproof borosilicate glass.
- The flared base makes it suitable for anal play.
- The glass body is suitable for temperature play.
- The bulbous design adds a delightful sensation.
- Budget-friendly ($31.99).
Cons:
- Not an anal toy for beginners.
- The flared base isn’t ideal for anal play.
- The round base makes it difficult to control the curve of the toy.
2. Lovehoney Slimline: For Beginners & Budget Seekers
Why we love Lovehoney Slimline:
Next up, we have the Lovehoney Slimline, an ideal piece for solo and partner play and perfect for anyone who wants to connect with their g-spot to experience the highly sought-after squirting orgasm. [1]
Like all Lovehoney products, the Slimline arrived on my doorstep in a nondescript brown box. Inside, the toy was tucked nicely into a spongey material that kept it safe during its trip to my house. I also found a lovely velvet bag that I’ve been using to store the Lovehoney Slimline since removing it from its box.
In the title of this toy, it’s referred to as a sensual glass dildo, and honestly, I feel like the word sensual doesn’t do this toy justice! Not only is it beautiful to look at, thanks to its smoothness and gentle curve, but it’s also the perfect length and feels great in hand.
Unlike many other products on this list, the Lovehoney Slimline doesn’t feel especially heavy. And though I was worried that the thin neck – which is likely responsible for the lightness of the toy – would make the toy fragile, it’s survived a couple of accidental drops without so much as a chip.
When using it alone, the long, thin neck made it easy to maneuver, and I found it incredibly easy to press the bulk of the toy against my g-spot, pinpointing the perfect sensation for a squirting orgasm.
Our panel members also reported loving incorporating it into partnered sex – especially head, since the thin handle leaves lots of space for your partner to work their magic.
Even our team members who previously struggled with accessing squirting orgasms felt like fountains at the hands of the Lovehoney Slimline. Whether they were using it solo or with their partner, everyone reported having some of their most intense orgasms while using this small but mighty toy.
Minor issues found during testing:
Having a longer insertable length combined with being made from glass instead of a more flexible material means a poor hand position or too much enthusiasm can create an uncomfortable ‘stabby’ sensation.
It’s also worth mentioning that if you’re looking for a toy that can provide a deep filling sensation, the Lovehoney Slimline won’t be the optimal choice since it has neither the weight nor width to be able to do so.
Why Lovehoney Slimline is our budget pick:
Though small, the Lovehoney Slimline packs a mean punch and earned an average rating of 95% among our testers.
- Design: After testing out this small glass dildo, it’s obvious that its selling feature is how well it stimulates the g-spot, thanks to its perfectly curved body and a decision to place the toy’s bulk in the tip.
- Price & Value: At a price of only $24.99, you can’t go wrong if you decide to try the Lovehoney Slimline. Considering its beautiful body and thoughtful design, our panel members think it’s quite the bargain.
- Stimulations: Although the Lovehoney Slimline can only really provide a single sensation, it does so exceptionally, with all of our panel members finding it easy to enjoy a deep g-spot orgasm.
Features:
- Material: Glass
- Length: 7”
- Color: Clear
- Circumference: 4.5”
Pros:
- Extremely budget-friendly ($24.99)
- Perfect size for incorporating into partnered sex.
- You can use it for g-spot and squirting orgasms.
- Great size for sex toy beginners.
Cons:
- Glass material is inflexible and could be ‘stabby’ if positioned poorly.
- Not thick or heavy enough to provide an overly filling sensation.
- It shouldn’t be used for anal play.
3. Chrystalino G-Rider: For G-Spot Stimulation
Why we love Chrystalino G-Rider:
The Chrysalino G-Rider is a luxury sex toy made of handcrafted glass that – just like the Lovehoney Slimline, is designed for pinpoint g-spot stimulation. Thanks to the extra-flared base, prostate-endowered users can also safely use it for a prostate orgasm.
Upon ordering, the Chrystalino G-Rider showed up in just a few days in low-key packaging that won’t have your neighbors asking any questions. After unboxing it, I noticed that it had a steeper curve and was smaller than other g-spot-specific toys, likely to make it better suited for p-spot stimulation.
Made from pure borosilicate glass, the toy feels solid in my hand, and at no point was I worried about it breaking while using it.
The thin handle has been outfitted with a large bulb that we found comfortable to hold onto, and I loved that the double-ended glass dildo is designed to be flipped around, with the option to insert the wide handle if you’re ever in the mood for extra stretch.
Suitable for temperature play, many of our panel members enjoyed warming the Chrystalino G-Rider under the tap before using it. The warm temperatures made it even easier to soften into all of the delightful sensations the toy had to offer, with many of them reporting easy access to squirting orgasms.
Minor issues found during testing:
The relatively intense curve and shorter body of the Chrystalino G-spot make it better suited for precise prostate stimulation than for penetrative vaginal play. It’s also important to note that the rounded base makes it difficult to keep the toy in place to enjoy hands-free play.
Why Chrystalino G-Rider is the best glass G-spot dildo:
The design of the Chrystalino G-Rider serves the exact purpose it’s supposed to, with our panel members giving it an average rating of 93%
- Sensation: The Chystalino G-Rider’s ability to pinpoint sensation exactly where you want it didn’t go unnoticed by our prostate-endowed panel members.
- Versatility: We loved that this toy can double as both a vaginal and anal toy, and the fact that you can insert both ends safely only adds to this toy’s wide variety of uses.
- Comfort: Unlike some toys that aren’t easy to hold onto for long periods, the handle of the Chrystalino G-Rider is ergonomic and won’t leave you with hand cramps.
Features:
- Material: Glass
- Length: 5”
- Color: Blue
- Circumference: 3.8”
Pros:
- The flared base makes it anal-safe.
- Very affordable ($34.99)
- It can be heated or cooled for temperature play.
- Option to use both ends of the toy.
Cons:
- Better suited for p-spot stimulation than vaginal play.
- The rounded base makes it unsuitable for hands-free play.
4. Chrystalino Planets: For Anal Stimulation
Why we love Chrystalino Planets:
If you’re a lover of the unique texture offered by a beaded glass dildo, then you’re going to love Chrystalino planets. An ideal size, this beautiful blue sex toy offers all the sensation you could ever want, with a gentle curve to target it where you want it most.
After receiving the Chrystalino Planets from Peepshow, it came quickly (as always) and nestled in a sturdy box, wrapped in enough padding to drop it off a 3-story building without breaking it.
Upon taking it out of the box, I first noticed how good it felt in my hands, offering just enough heft without feeling unwieldy and easy to drop. Our panel members agreed that it was a perfect size – not too long and not too short, with a gentle curve perfect for helping you get it where you want.
You can use the Chrystalino Planets both anally and vaginally for both p-spot, g-spot, and even a-spot play – another bonus of the gentle curvature. It’s also small enough to sneak a vibrator into the mix for added sensation.
The largest bead is easy to grip and, much like a joystick top, allows you to angle and move the toy how you want it. Another nice benefit of this toy is the option to use it ‘upside down,’ inserting the grip first for a delectable filling sensation, compliments of its 1.8” thickness.
As with all glass sex toys, you can experiment with temperature play and use it with your chosen lube, including silicone-based ones. You’ll surely appreciate this feature if you decide to use this super-textured toy for anal play.
Minor issues found during testing:
Although a glass dildo that is technically anal-safe, the Chrystalino Planets don’t have a tapered end. For this reason, you must use caution when inserting the toy anally and never use it without keeping one (lube-free) hand on the last bead.
Why Chrystalino Planets is the most effective glass anal dildo:
Another fan-favorite, many of the panel members fell in love with this toy and gave it an average score of 94%.
- Versatility: Like many of the glass toys included in this collection, the Chrystalino planets can be used both anally and vaginally, and even offers the option for you to use it ‘grip-first’ for an extra-filling sensation.
- Comfort: Cupping your hand around the largest of the six beads is incredibly comfortable, and despite being quite textured, the smoothness of the body adds a definite pleasantness.
- Sensation: The texture of the six beads is incredibly unique and can’t be easily replicated by other toys.
You can find more glass butt plugs in this review article.
Features:
- Material: Glass
- Length: 5.5”
- Color: Blue
- Circumference: 5.3”
Pros:
- More rigid version of classic anal beads.
- Very budget-friendly ($33.99).
- Can be used in four different ways.
- Feels great when holding.
- The ideal shape for a-spot, p-spot, and g-spot stimulation.
Cons:
- Doesn’t have a flared base.
5. Blown By Spartacus: For Size Queens
Why we love Blown By Spartacus:
If you’re looking for a big glass dildo that will surely make your boyfriend jealous, then we have just the one! Blown By Spartacus is our super-sized option, boasting a whopping 7.5” insertable length and 5.5” circumference.
When this piece arrived in the mail it was in inconspicuous brown packaging, and after taking it out of the box, I felt both nervous and excited after seeing how big and heavy it was.
As you can imagine, a dildo of this size, crafted entirely from glass, is more than a little hefty. I was also surprised by its realistic nature, coming complete with veins for added texture and a slight curve upward that made it ideal for g-spot stimulation.
That said, anyone unsure of the strength of borosilicate glass will have nothing to worry about when using this toy, as I’m sure it could easily withstand even a few drops without so much as a scratch. [2]
Adding the ‘scrotum’ on the Blown By Spartacus is another detail that didn’t go unnoticed by my panel members and me. It makes it easy to hold onto during solo play or when being used by a partner, and it also provides a nice base for hands-free riding and makes it compatible with many harnesses.
Due to its size, the clear glass dildo can hold onto temperature for longer than most other glass dildos, making it perfect for lovers of temperature play. And though I didn’t dare use it for any anal play, the scrotum makes it anal-safe, and some panel members reported using it for an incredible gaping experience.
Minor issues found during testing:
It probably goes without saying, but if you’re new to using sex toys, a toy as large and rigid as the Blown By Spartacus might not be the ideal place to start.
On top of being quite large, this toy is also very heavy, creating an intense filling sensation that is beloved by many but largely depends on personal preference. Some panel members also reported finding the veins too rough, but that’s also completely subjective.
Why Blown By Spartacus is the best large glass dildo:
Aside from its size, the Blown By Spartacus has several details that added to an all-around great user experience, earning it an average rating of 95% from our panel members.
- Design: Though on the larger side of glass dildos, features like a super-tapered tip and flared base leave you to enjoy this toy pain-free in any way you choose.
- Sensation: Complete with a bulbous head, prominent veins, and a perfectly curved shaft, Blown By Spartacus delivers sensation exactly where you want it.
- Quality: Purchasing a veiny toy can sometimes be risky, as the edges aren’t always smooth and can cause discomfort. Our panel members were blown away by the attention to detail and felt the quality shown through from scrotum to tip.
Features:
- Material: Glass
- Length: 7.5”
- Color: Clear
- Circumference: 5.5”
Pros:
- Nicely curved for g-spot stimulation.
- Super-sized option for experienced sex toy enthusiasts.
- Incredibly study.
- Curved tip for easy insertion.
- Very textured for added sensation.
Cons:
- The body is quite heavy in hand.
- Sex toy beginners might find it too large.
- Not the most budget-friendly option ($59.99).
6. NS Novelties Heart of Glass: Heart-Shaped Model
Why we love NS Novelties Heart of Glass:
If you’re more of a fan of pretty and pink, then you’ll love the next pick. The NS Novelties Heart of Glass is a dainty toy that seamlessly combines texture and smoothness, creating a totally unassuming toy perfect for every occasion.
A feature of this toy that I noticed immediately after unboxing it is the frosted, hard-plastic case that the glass dildo comes in, a step up from the velvet storage cases that sometimes accompany glass toys.
I was also surprised that the toy looked larger in person than in the photos. Originally deemed a beginner-friendly toy, I would instead recommend it to folks who have some experience with glass sex toys and are looking for a size up.
The panel members and I loved the perfect combination of the smooth glass with a slight texture from the rounded bumps, adding an extra dose of stimulation without overwhelming the senses.
The bulbous points also gave the toy a plug-like sensation when held inside the vagina, which I loved pairing with a vibrator for clitoral stimulation. When used more vigorously, I found the heart-shaped base ergonomic and comfortable to hold onto for extended periods.
I found the tip of the NS Novelties Heart of Glass perfectly tapered for comfortable insertion when used both anally and vaginally. I also never got tired of the visual of the delicate pink heart peeking out from between my legs.
Minor issues found during testing:
Although the base on the NS Novelties Heart of Glass is technically flared enough to be considered anal-safe, I didn’t feel 100% comfortable using it fully inserted without at least one hand on the base to prevent it from slipping inside.
I also think that the design is very attractive for sex toy beginners, but due to the size, weight, and inflexibility of the glass, I wouldn’t recommend it as a first-time toy.
Why NS Novelties Heart of Glass is the best glass heart dildo:
Regarding the NS Novelties Heart of Glass, practicality and appearance seamlessly combine to create an exceptional piece, earning it an average of 93% from our test panel.
- Aesthetic: A major selling point of the NS Novelties Heart of Glass dildo is how aesthetically pleasing it is, offering a wand-like appearance that is delicate and curvy in all the right places.
- Price & Value: Though more expensive than some of the other models in this review, it’s clear where the value lies when you account for the unique design and high-quality storage container.
- Build Quality: Despite having a shaft that is on the thin side, the NS Novelties Heart of Glass feels sturdy in hand, and something about it screams luxury.
Features:
- Material: Glass
- Length: 5.5”
- Color: Clear and pink
- Circumference: 3.9”
Pros:
- Has an absolutely adorable design.
- Not so textured that it was uncomfortable.
- Made from high-quality borosilicate glass.
- Comes with a hard-plastic storage case.
- Mostly budget-friendly ($42.99).
- The heart-shaped base is easy to hold onto.
Cons:
- The flared base could be wider for safe anal play.
- On the weighty side.
- Not necessarily beginner-friendly.
Other Good Alternatives
The Icicles No. 24 is our preferred glass tentacle dildo. It’s a bit pricey, coming in at $63.99. Still, I guarantee it’s worth the extra money. Offering the most texture of any other glass toy in this review, it’s perfect for titillating the senses. The bumps on the curved body are great for delivering sensation directly to the G-spot to encourage squirting and G-spot orgasms. It’s also super easy to hold onto, thanks to the loop-like base, making it perfect for both solo and partner play. Although not especially thick or heavy, the bulk of this toy is perfectly located to offer a satisfying filling sensation. You can find more tentacle dildos in this guide.
Black Arrow is a ribbed glass dildo that also delivers on sensation. With two ends, you can choose your adventure and decide on a super-smooth experience or a bumpier ride – depending on your mood. Though not especially thick, the two-way dildo features a super-tapered tip that easily targets the p-spot and g-spot. Like anal beads, the threaded end increases in size as you move toward the center, making the double-sided glass dildo useful for maximizing anal stimulation. You can find more of the best black dildos here.
Crystal Delights Harness Smooth is our recommendation if you want a smoother model. It might not be the most budget-friendly option at $79.95, but the creators of this glass dildo didn’t skimp on quality. Featuring a nicely flared base, the Crystal Delights Harness Smooth is safe for anal play, and the gentle curve makes it suitable for P-spot stimulation. As the name suggests, it’s also harness-compatible, a feature you rarely see in glass dildos. Thanks to its smaller size and relative lightness, you can use it with a harness without worrying about it slumping during play, though a metal O-ring will help keep it more erect.
No glass dildo review would be complete without at least one vibrating option. Chrystalino Prickly is our favorite that offers 20 unique vibration patterns and settings. The super-curved tip is tapered enough for easy insertion and steeply curved to pinpoint sensation directly to the p-spot or g-spot. The Chrystalino Prickly has a run-time of 40 minutes before needing to be charged via USB and features a suction-cup base for hands-free play.
Icicles No. 62 is the most realistic model among our review samples. It’s more beginner-friendly than the Blown By Spartacus. Still, it offers many similar features, including a veiny, textured shaft and a curve ideal for stimulating the erogenous zones. It fits perfectly into a harness – with much of the bulk of the toy being reserved towards the shaft, helping to prevent drooping. Icicles No. 62 is a great step up for anyone with moderate experience with glass toys and a great segue into Icicles No. 63, which has even more texture and an additional 0.5” insertable length.
Gläs Naturals Chili Pepper is one of the more budget-friendly options in this review at a very reasonable $23.99. Despite its relatively thin body, this unique toy boasts a beautiful, sleek, and surprisingly stimulating design. It’s also a little bit kitschy and could make a fun gift for a friend or your significant other. Super lightweight, the Gläs Naturals Chili Pepper is a great glass dildo to bring traveling and packs a mean punch into its lightweight body.
What Is a Glass Dildo?
A glass dildo is a penis-like sex toy made from glass and designed for sexual stimulation. Most glass sex toys are made from Borosilicate glass, molded to produce different shapes and sizes. Some people prefer glass over silicone toys because they can use them for temperature play.
Are Glass Dildos Safe?
Glass sex toys made from Borosilicate glass are generally safe. Borosilicate glass has been manufactured to endure extreme temperature changes without shattering. However, not all glass is created equal, and it’s essential to be well-informed.
Glass sex toys should be produced using a proper annealing process. This process involves slow cooling that removes internal stress – making them more durable. For example, Vincent above has undergone a 2-step annealing process, making it perfectly safe. But if you are unsure if your product has been adequately annealed, you can use a polarizing lens to check for internal stress. This video describes how to do this.
Warning: Do not use Soda-lime glass as it has not been thermally treated and could shatter! Soda-lime glass is used in 90% of products today, for example, glass jars, your casserole dishes, and windows. Never use glass household items as sex toys!
Also, where you buy the glass dildo will determine whether you get a body-safe one or not. We recommend buying from reputable, trusted companies rather than startups on the internet that nobody knows about.
Finally, if you drop your glass toys, check for damages before using them again.
What Are The Different Types?
One thing that makes glass dildos unique is the versatility that comes with them. Apart from the realistic look, these dildos look more like pieces of jewelry or vintage instruments.
And though glass is not as flexible, it’s easy to mold, and manufacturers have numerous designs to meet the self-pleasuring enthusiasts’ needs.
So, here are some of the popular types of glass sex toys;
- Straight Glass Dildos. For people looking for a regular, high-quality glass sex toy to fill themselves up with or complement sex with their partner, this is the right model for you. It has a sleek design and a smooth finish for easier penetration.
- Curved Glass Dildos. Probably the most common type on the market, these glass dildos feature a curved shaft for g-spot stimulation. A curved glass dildo also blissfully achieves clitoral massage, especially those with a flared base.
- Twisted Glass Dildos. A twisted glass dildo will give you intense orgasms due to the twisting motion during penetration.
- Ribbed Glass Dildo. Right at the pinnacle of magical sensations, ribbed glass toys provide more rigorous action. Experienced players love this type of dildo because of the more pleasurable sensations.
But Why Should I Use One?
As a person who has used glass dildos for many years, I believe I have enough insight to share with you. So, take it from me- there are many reasons to buy a glass dildo. I have two in the closet, and I don’t recall regretting spending money on either (well, the second one was the only one I bought, but yeah).
So, here are some of the reasons why using a glass dildo to excite your sweet spots is a noble idea;
1. Long-Lasting Construction
Glass sex toys are crafted from high-quality Borosilicate glass. This resilient glass is sturdy, non-porous, and very durable in the long run. In fact, with proper care and maintenance, it can outdo the rest of your sex toy arsenal on the longevity front.
Moreover, glass doesn’t deteriorate due to contact with other materials and lube.
2. A Great Addition for Temperature Play Enthusiasts
The versatility of glass dildos is unmatched. They can be used for vaginal and anal penetration and can also be heated or cooled to heighten pleasure. To enjoy temperature play, dip your dildo in warm or cold water for a few minutes until it reaches the desired temperature.
They are also waterproof, so you can bring them into the shower.
3. Glass is Hypoallergenic
Glass dildos are non-porous and hypoallergenic, which makes them hygienic and body-safe. For people allergic to other sex toy materials like latex or rubber, glass is the way to go. These impressive dildos will offset multiple vaginal orgasms and stimulate your sweetest spots for the ultimate pleasure.

4. Appealing to the Eyes.
Glass dildos can double as ornaments. And their unique design makes them a piece of art, almost surpassing the main objective of delivering orgasms. It’s one thing to have a sex toy that does the job, but another to get one that merges pleasure and décor.
5. Effective G-spot Stimulation
As mentioned, glass sex toys come in different designs, most of which feature curved bodies and bulbous heads. The curved anatomy allows the glass dildos to hit your sweet spots (i.e., g-spot stimulation) effortlessly and prompt spectacular orgasms.
Whether you’ve just started using dildos or you’re a legend of the game, glass dildoes will always get the job done.
How to Use a Glass Dildo?
- The advantage of glass is that you can use it for temperature. Both hot and warm temperatures are possible. But be careful so you don’t hurt yourself. Always check the temperature with your hands before inserting.
- Furthermore, they are compatible with all types of lubes, so you don’t have the limitations of Silicone dildoes that can only use water-based. However, the preferred lube for glass dildos is a thicker lubricant.
- My preferred way to lube glass dildos is to pour it on the tip first and then use your hand to cover the entire shaft. Also, apply plenty of lube to your genitals.
- Finally, the best position to use a glass dildo is on your back, knees close to the chest, similar to the missionary. We also enjoy the doggy style and on-the-side (spooning).
Note: A safe glass anal dildo needs to have a flared and broad base so it won’t get stuck in your rectum. More on anal dildoes here.

How to Heat and Cool a Glass Dildo?
One of the highlights of using a glass dildo is the ability to experience temperature play: a unique form of stimulation that focuses on your sense of touch. Temperature play allows you to tease yourself and wow your partner with various temperatures.
This type of play can be a great way to set the mood during foreplay!
Glass dongs can hold their temperatures, making them the perfect choice for temperature play. So, here’s what you need to know before heating up or cooling down your glass dildo;
- Heating Your Dildo. Warm glass toys are perfect for massages as they can help to relax sore muscles. So, how do you heat the dildo? Easy, just submerge it in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes. The resulting glass sex toy will undoubtedly turn the temperature up in your sex life.
- Cooling Down Your Dildo. A chilly glass dildo will give you goosebumps in the sweetest spots of your body. Whether you’re playing solo or with your partner, cooling the dildo will heighten the pleasure. Moreover, using a cool glass sex toy during foreplay will have your partner’s nipples perky and her clitoris bouncing in joy!
Pro Tip; Before you slide it inside of you, always test the temperature using the inside of your wrist or arm skin. You don’t want to burn or freeze your sensitive spot. Also, never microwave the glass sex toy, as this can lead to uneven heating that could burn your vagina.
