- Nipple and clit clamp set

- Rose gold nickel-free metal
- Beaded chain connects all three clamps.
Pros
- ✅ The sensation is great
- ✅ Looks very elegant when on

- ❌ Can fall off with too much movement
Why I Chose It
I picked out the Fifty Shades Freed All Sensation Clitoris and Nipple Clamps as the Test Winner because it’s a great quality clit clamp! Of course, it’s a great bonus that it comes with a sexy rose gold chain and two adjustable nipple clamps with body-safe silicone tips.
First of all, it looks stunning! If you think they’re cute as they are, Isabelle, our tester, thought they looked even more amazing on. The weighted charms are a nice touch and add some movement. Even though she also liked the look of them, Isabelle thought “the weight isn’t that noticeable.”
Her favorite part of using this clit clamp set was during partnered play: “The sensations when they tugged the chain or used their hands and mouth on me while wearing the clamps felt like someone had turned the volume all the way up, and each touch turned me to jelly!”
In terms of quality, it doesn’t get 100/100 score, since “the chain just doesn’t seem that durable.” Although, if you are careful with the chain, I highly recommend giving this clamp set a go.
Runner-Up CalExotics Cleopatra Collection Clitoris Jewelry
- Gorgeous clit clamp jewelry
- Clothespin-like design
- Clear plastic ‘crystals’ hang from the base.
Pros
- ✅ Elegant design
- ✅ Provides intense clit stimulation
- ✅ Easy to use
- ✅ Slightly weighted
Cons
- ❌ May be too long for some
- ❌ Quality isn't amazing
Why I Chose It
The CalExotics Cleopatra is another great option for those who love a slightly more intense pinch. This combined with the stunning and elegant design makes it a great choice.
Our tester Rachel was just as obsessed with the design as I am. She noted that if she “was going on looks alone, this thing would be a 100/100”. Even though they’re made of clear ABS plastic, the ‘crystals’ look really nice and high-end.
The main drawback is the performance. The metal is slightly thicker compared to other clit clamps and this makes the clamp very tight. For Rachel’s anatomy and her level of experience, the sensations were a bit much for her. The length of the clamp itself also meant that the crystals got in the way of any attempt at simultaneous vaginal penetration. This is definitely more suitable for very experienced users who knew they like an intense pinch.
That said, the quality was pretty decent. The metal is sturdy and “the fact that the clamp didn’t break or bend when I tried to force it may actually mean that it will perform well over time!”
Cheapest Lovehoney Pinch Perfect Clit Clamp
- Simple tweezer-style clitoris clamp
- Silicone-coated tips
- Lovehoney logo charm dangling from the base.
Pros
- ✅ Fully adjustable design
- ✅ Great for beginners
- ✅ Short enough to be worn during penetrative sex
- ✅ Affordable
Cons
- ❌ Can slip out of place sometimes
- ❌ Doesn't work well with lube
Why I Chose It
The Lovehoney Pinch Perfect Clitoral Clamp is perfect for beginners who want to be in full control of the intensity on their clit clamping journey. The tweezer-style clamp is super easy to adjust once you’ve made it past the initial learning curve. According to our tester, Edie, it’s perfect for newbies because “it’s more than affordable, it’s extremely pretty and it’s fun to use with a partner. Plus, it’s adjustable, so you can find the perfect level of stimulation for you.
In terms of design, she found that “the delicate design is simply gorgeous, complimented with a dangling heart and the comfort of soft, silicone tips.”
Even though Edie didn’t enjoy any of the intense pinches that the tightest settings could offer, she did find that “a however, a light squeeze was rather pleasant and made masturbation far more interesting. That’s especially so when I could give the clamp a gentle tug or wiggle”. Performance-wise, it definitely impresses me with the ease of use and the range of sensation.

Expert Pick DOMINIX Deluxe Leather Collar with Clamps
- Leather collar with 2 pairs of tweezer-style clamps
- 1 set for the nipples
- 2 set for the labia/clitoris
- Connected by long chains.
Pros
- ✅ Genuine leather collar
- ✅ Chains are strong and sturdy
- ✅ All clamps are fully adjustable
- ✅ Versatile use
Cons
- ❌ The tips are made of PVC and not silicone
- ❌ Not clothespin-style clit clamp
Why I Chose It
I chose the DOMINIX Deluxe Leather Collar with Clamps as my Expert Pick because it’s a super versatile product. This device offers a lot of other sensations to enjoy along with your clit clamping.
Complete with a thick, genuine leather collar, sturdy and chunky chains, and 4 individual clamps to be used wherever you desire, there’s a lot of combination options to explore when wearing this set. Use all four (one of each nipple and each labia), or use of the bottom two on the clit, or mix and match it your personal liking.
The o-rings on the chains and collar also allow you to attach additional BDSM gear or restraints to easily amp up the intensity of your play time. The chains are also durable and easy to tug on!
As far as the design goes, this piece is pretty sexy. According to our tester, Isabelle, it felt sexy to wear as well: “The thick collar sits really beautifully over my chest, and I love the feeling of the cold chunky chains brushing against my skin, sending shivers all over my body!”
My only point of critique is that the tips on the clamps are made of PVC and not body-safe silicone. This isn’t crucial since they’re not for internal use. However, for something used on the labia or clitoris, it could have been a nice touch.

We love the products reviewed in this post — and we hope you do too! But here at BedBible, we don’t want you to miss out on anything, so we just couldn’t stop ourselves from sharing these other incredible clit teasers that will rock your world.
We-Vibe Melt App Controlled Rechargeable Clitoral Stimulator
Pretty in pink, the We-Vibe Melt fits nicely in the hand, and is created with both you and your partner in mind. The slightly squishy opening fits snugly and comfortably over the clitoris without directly touching the surface. Once activated (either manually or via the app), the We-Vibe Melt sends rapid pressure waves to create suction around the clit at your chosen level of intensity from a gentle 1 to an impressively stimulating 12. Want to use the Melt with your partner? The app allows your partner to control it from a distance, opening all kinds of opportunities for long-distance fun. Alternatively, place the Melt between you and your partner during sex — whichever way you choose it’s a win-win. High quality, fully waterproof and USB rechargeable, charging the We-Vibe Melt takes around 90 minutes, which should give you a good two hours of play.

If you love a good licking, you’ll soon be dribbling thanks to the Fun Factory Volta Rechargeable Extra Powerful Flickering Tongue. It features two flexible silicone tips that flutter and flap against the clitoris and labia to give unbelievable sensations. The tongue-like tips are gently tapered, allowing you to target your clit for intense, pinpointed pleasure, but can also send waves of bliss to the entirety of your pleasure zone, and can be inserted up to 4 inches of its total 7.5-inch length. Equally enjoyable when shared with a playmate as a boost to oral sex and foreplay, you’re spoilt for choice with the Fun Factory Volta’s 6 vigorous speeds and 6 different movements. It’s USB rechargeable, easy to hold, and made from totally waterproof silicone, so you can even play your way to paradise in the bath or shower — you can use it on nipples and penis too!

It’s small, it’s sexy, and it’s powerful. Crank up the pleasure when playing solo with the Dame Fin. This petite pleasure-giver is based on a bullet-style vibrator coupled with a silicone ring that can be slipped over any finger to stimulate and gratify all your external sweet spots. Equipped with 3 different speeds, you can really ramp up the euphoria with this quality clit clamp vibrator. To get even more from ththis finger vibrator, slip the vibrating bullet out from its sleeve to be used independently, giving you a whole different joyride.
Types of Clit Clamps
- Tweezer — Tweezer clamps pinch both sides of the clitoris, and they are adjustable, which makes them great for beginners.
- Slide-to-fit — The clamp has an ergonomic design that slides over the inner-labia and pinches the clit
- Crocodile/alligator — These clamps are also adjustable and are similar to a clothing peg style.
- With nipple clamps — Stimulate your nips and clit at the same time with a nipple and clit clamp set. Not only do they feel amazing, but they also look incredibly sexy!
- Vibrating — Clit clamps with added vibrations add even more stimulation.
- Sucker — Clit suckers can be adjustable or not. They draw more blood into your clitoris, making it extra sensitive!
Why Use a Clit Clamp?
Are you curious about clit clamps but don’t want to jump in at the deep end? I’m here to explain what a clit clamp is and why you should use one. If you’re not into BDSM and bondage play, anything with ‘clamp’ or ‘clip’ in its title probably sounds a little scary, but in actual fact clit clamps are anything but. A clit clip is a sensual toy that applies pressure to the clitoris — usually by squeezing either side. Doing this increases blood flow to the clit, making it bigger and supercharging its thousands of nerve endings. Some styles of clit clamp can also be used during full-blown penetration, or be used to tease and excite nipples and other erogenous zones. The result? Read on to find out…
Increased Arousal
Engorged blood vessels in the clit make it erect and excited, and totally turning you on.
Intensified Sensations
A clitoris that is hyper-sensitized and responsive to even the slightest of sensations. This means heightened pleasure during oral sex and foreplay,
Explosive Orgasms
Yep, you’ve guessed it; having your clit clamped, teased, and toyed with means mind-blowing orgasms when you eventually decide to let yourself climax.
