Toys in Love

OMFGYASB…! – See, got your attention didn’t I? Well if I didn’t, maybe these absolutely stunning pieces of artistic glass dildos will… Because seriously; no *blip*ing thing I could write as an intro will do these incredible pleasure objects justice.

Now you may not have noticed, but I wrote that bit in plural. – That’s because Standard Glass not only sent us one, but two. – One to stress test, and one for review. – I mean seriously; how mind-boggling is that!? That’s like saying; just have at it, we known they’re frickin’ awesome!

So, we did. – Well, to be fair, I did, – I’ll probably have traumas for the rest of my life… More on that later.

Standard Glass is company out of Seattle, Washington – and as you might have guessed, they make some of the weirdest, coolest and most beautiful looking glass dildos you’ll ever find! – They’re called Candy Colored Dildos, and for a good reason. They really do look like a big, giant candy stick. – But being glass they’re just marvelous to look at. The candy colored swirls inside the glass, running up and down the entire length of the shaft, look absolutely tantalizing and scrumptious. No bloody wonder they call these Candy Colored!

Each one of these pieces is meticulous and painstaking hand-blown, and each one with extreme care to every detail during the process. – From molten blob to final annealed glass product. All done in the name of bringing each piece up to a level of what you’d expect from a fine piece of glass art, – and not ‘just’ a pleasure object, – more often than not just seen in a dimly lit room.

Because each piece is hand-blown with whichever color is on the artist’s mind at the time, the choice of color also varies greatly. In fact, no two pieces will ever be the same. – In color or in size. – Though they do try and get the same shape, length and bulb-size in the ballpark of the picture, – up close, you’ll always find differences. – Which not only makes a difference in size, but also makes the glass dildo you get quite unique, – and in more sense than one, yours and yours alone.

The one in my hand right now e.g. is made with shades of swirling blue and green. – And if we were at a carneval, it would be a big, nice minty-tasting candy stick I could lick for hours. As it is I could probably still lick it for hours – just for kicks. – Instead we used it for something else… The other one is a gentle red’ish shade. – Strawberry me thinks…

To look at, these dildos have a gentle S-curve to them. From head to base they’re about 11 inches long. The shaft is approx. 1 inch with two bulbs at about 1½ inches across each; the final one tapers very gently, so it’s easy to insert the toy into whichever orifice of choosing. – And being made of glass, the dildo has no seams, no rough edges, nothing to impede its slick progress into your body. And if you use a little water-based lube, you’ll hardly feel the intrusion at all… (Any lube will do of course; the glass is completely non-porous and couldn’t care less which lube you choose. – We always go for water-based though, especially if it’s to be used vaginally)

I should now point out that Standard Glass use a soda lime based glass for their toys, which is different than most of the Pyrex or Borosilicate glass dildos out in the high-end marketplace of glass dildos. The soda lime bases allows Standard Glass to work larger, use better, more vibrant color, and achieve very fluid curves in their pieces. The only thing to be aware of with soda lime based glass, is that the glass isn’t resistant to extreme heat like borosilicate. This just means you can’t boil or autoclave the Candy Colored Dildos, nor should you use the freezer. This type of glass is not designed to endure these rapid changes in temperature. – Other than that, they are just as extremely durable as any other high-end glass toy.

– And you can take it from me, as mentioned we were sent two – one was meant for stress testing… And though almost breaking my heart, I’ve held it under the hot water from our tap – which is steamy hot enough that you definitely can’t hold your hand under it, rapidly switched to the cold tap water, which is about fridge temp or a little colder. – Ten times back and forth. – Followed by dropping it from 6 feet onto a thin carpet ten times. – Ten times from 6 feet onto linoleum floor. – Ten times from 6 feet on a wooden plank floor, – which left bruises on the floor. – But none of it left as much as a scratch/nick/mark anything at all, on the dildo. – It’s as good as new. Consider the stress test done, – I need my heart! – And this is NOT something you should try with yours!

You can spend a long time just looking at these toys. – But come play time…

Lube is a godsend during any sex play, and as I mentioned; these pieces require very little, – but a small amount goes a long way. The handle-end is great and almost ergonomical when playing with yourself, and I had no trouble relaxing during the gentle push required for penetration. The size fit me with no requirement for a starter toy too, – and yet still big enough for me to feel good and well penetrated, – to feel full, and to feel aroused like bloody hell!

The small amount of lube and the smoothness of the glass made thrusting effortless. And as I was working the two bulbs backs and forth, massaging and rubbing my P-spot, it took no time for prostate fluids to run freely. I was sooo worked up by this beautiful toy and the sensation of the two bulbs that I came so quickly and with so much force it completely took me by surprise. I’m usually very much in control when it comes to letting my load go, but definitely not this time. – It was just an explosion of my world I couldn’t help… *blip*ing fantastic feeling!

After getting my senses back I took a quick shower, cleaned up, cleaned the toy with some hot water, some antibacterial soap and wiped it off with a good sex toy cleaner, – and then I made ready for my OH to get of work. Trust me; if that little masturbation round I just had was a workout, I had a marathon in store for her! – It was a really good day…!

So; is there nothing bad about this toy? Well, This toy doesn’t have a safety-flange on its end for absolutely safe anal play. But, at 11″ long! – Seriously; I doubt very you’d loose it in your ass. – You’d need a bloody dungeon in there… I certainly have no worries writing that it’s great for MY ass, – you be the judge of yours. But other than that; no! This is an amazing work of art, a great work of pleasure and a sex toy so many more people should run out and buy!

The Candy Colored Dildo can be bought in all Babeland stores (where you can walk in and get the color and size perfect for you, or via their website of course. – Only here you’ll leave the color choosing to fate and the wonderful staff at Babeland.
