6 Best Glass Dildos and Sex Toys

In my opinion, aside from the aesthetics, there are two main things to think about when choosing your glass dildo — size and texture.
Size
Keep in mind that the rigidity will make the size feel bigger than a silicone dildo of the same size. Here’s a list of the dildos in this review from smallest to biggest. I’ve used the maximum diameter (⌀ ) as the main measure here but also listed the length (ℓ ).
- Icicles No. 60 — ⌀ 1 inch, ℓ 6.1 inches
- Biird Cecii — ⌀ 1.8 inches, ℓ 7 inches
- Gläs Purple Rain — ⌀ 1.25 inches, ℓ 7 inches
- Lovehoney Beaded Sensual Glass Dildo — ⌀ 1.35 inches, ℓ 9 inches
- Icicles No. 18 — ⌀ 1.5 inches, ℓ 7.5 inches
- Gläs Realistic Ribbed Glass Dildo — ⌀ 1.7 inches, ℓ 8 inches
Texture
Again, the rigidity of glass can make the textural details feel more intense, especially if it’s a bigger dildo. Here’s how our glass dildos rank on textural intensity from least intense to most:
Test Winner Beaded Sensual Glass Dildo
- Tapered tip
- 5 beads plus 1 for the handle
- Curved shaft
Pros
- ✅ Vaginal and anal safe
- ✅ Satisfying weight
- ✅ Beaded shape provides rippling massage
Cons
- ❌ Can get very slippery when lubed-up
Why I Chose It
This beaded glass dildo from Lovehoney was a clear winner in my mind! It combines beauty, form, and versatility in one fantastic dildo. The beads are more stimulating that a completely smooth dildo but not enough to be overstimulating or uncomfortable. It really is the Goldilocks of glass dildos!
Emily tested this glass dildo for us and was beyond impressed giving it a perfect score of 5/5. She loved that the beaded design “made for excellent stimulation both externally and internally.” She also experienced that the “heaviness of the glass also made me have a very full feeling,” which she really enjoyed!
The “curve of the Lovehoney Beaded Sensual Glass Dildo is also great for g-spot stimulation” and could also be great for p-spot stimulation.

Cheapest Gläs Purple Rain
- Double-ended design with beaded texture or a smooth shaft
- Pronounced bulbous tip
Pros
- ✅ Simple but pleasurable
- ✅ Curved handle is great for g-spot massage
- ✅ Beautiful purple color
- ✅ Beginner-friendly
Cons
- ❌ Will be too slim for many
Why I Chose It
I would say this is glass dildo is fantastic value for money. Not only is it very cheap, at under $30, you are essentially getting two dildos for the price of one with the double-ended design.
Our tester, Mike, was impressed by all this seemingly “simple yet functional glass dildo” had to offer! One of Mike’s favorite things about using the Purple Rain dildo was “witnessing [his] female partner’s reactions” and the “pleasure [he] derived from her pleasure!”
They enjoyed that the “ridges offer a novel and thrilling sensory experience.” They also found that although it was thinner than they expected, it still delivered some great, sensual stimulation and paired well with other types of stimulation.
Best for Beginners Biird Cecii
- Slim, smooth glass dildo
- Slightly bulbed shape
Pros
- ✅ Beautiful design
- ✅ Elegant zip up storage case
- ✅ Non-intimidating
Cons
- ❌ Not super stimulating
- ❌ Could be too small for some
Why I Chose It
I am the lucky owner of this incredibly beautiful glass dildo from Biird. I could twirl it around looking at the iridescent swirling colors for hours. But it has much more to it than just being….really, really good looking!
I was very surprised by how much I enjoyed this glass dildo, despite it being completely smooth and slimmer than my favorite dildos. While it didn’t provide a whole lot of stimulation, the way it glides felt fantastic!
These qualities are also precisely why I chose this as the best glass dildo for beginners! You don’t need any warm-up, it’s unintimidating, and it still feels wonderful to use!
I also feel like Biird have really gone the extra mile to create a dildo that feels super luxurious with the faux leather, zippered storage case. It’s definitely a high-end product but without a high-end price tag.
Best for G-Spot Icicles No. 18 Glass Glass G-Spot Dildo
- Double-ended glass dildo with beaded or bulbous end
- Stimulating bumps on the shaft
- Gently curved
Pros
- ✅ Beautiful flower design
- ✅ Suitable for anal and vaginal stimulation
- ✅ Good range of sensations
Cons
- ❌ Gets pretty slippery
- ❌ No storage bag
Why I Chose It
The Icicles No. 18 glass dildo is definitely one of the most stimulating glass dildos in the review in terms of the different textures it offers. I would opt for this one if I wanted something a little more intense.
Cassie reviewed it and was blown away by this glass dildo after she tested it! It was a case of love at first sight with this dildo’s “stunning” design that features a “gorgeous flower inside the glass.”
However, it wasn’t only the looks that Cassie loved, she also really appreciated that the “design itself offers a lot of versatility in use and sensation.” She also “really enjoyed how the curved shape, the different sizes bulbs, and the stimulation bumps all came together to provide an impressive experience.”
This beautiful glass dildo helped Cassie “unlock a whole new realm of g-spot stimulation” and she discovered “just how great firm g-spot massage can be.”

Biggest Glas 8" Realistic Ribbed Glass Dildo
- Large glass dildo
- Realistic shaped head and balls
- Ribbed body
Pros
- ✅ Highly stimulating
- ✅ Vaginal and anal safe
- ✅ Balls make a good handle
Cons
- ❌ Will be too big for many
- ❌ Heavy
Why I Chose It
I would say this is the most intensely stimulating glass dildo in the review. It is the biggest glass dildo in the review and it’s worth keeping in mind that those 8 inches feel much more intense in glass than a softer material like silicone. The size and rigidity also make those ridges feel a whole lot more intense as well!
Unfortunately, although she thought this “toy is crafted well,” our tester found this dildo was just too much for her! She described her experience as a “a textbook example of underestimating just how intensely glass dildos can perform!” A mistake that’s easy to make.
She found “the girth of this monster far too large” and it was “heavier than expected.” The ridges are “very prominent and provide intense stimulation when in use” but run the risk of being too much.
Most Realistic Icicles no. 60 Glass Dildo
- Realistically shaped glass dildo
- Sculpted head with pronounced coronal ridge
- Light spiral criss-cross texture on shaft
Pros
- ✅ Slim and but satisfying
- ✅ Vaginal and anal safe
- ✅ Slightly curved
Cons
- ❌ Too slim for some
- ❌ Can be awkward to hold
- ❌ No storage bag
Why I Chose It
Most glass dildos are non-representational and often look more like sculptures than dildos. However, I love that this one offers an artistic interpretation of realistic, penis-shaped design. For me the best bit of this phallic-shaped dildo is the head, as the coronal ridge provides some excellent stimulation.
Our tester, Haley, loved it so much that she wrote that the “the Icicles No. 60 Glass Dildo is [her] favourite toy to this day!”
She “enjoyed how many different ways the toy could be used” and found it “helped [her] branch out [her] personal preferences” and explore new sensations.
As some who had experienced painful penetration, Haley found it much more comfortable and “much easier to insert than other toys I have tried.” This also means this would be a fantastic glass dildo for beginners!

Are Glass Dildos Safe? Borosilicate Glass Explained
You might be wandering whether it is safe to insert glass objects into your most sensitive areas and my answer is that it can be, depending on the type of glass.
Glass dildos should never be made of just regular glass — that’s an accident waiting to happen!
Good glass dildos are made of borosilicate glass, which is much stronger, can withstand temperature changes, and even be boiled.
It can actually withstand temperatures of around 300ºF before it starts to fracture! That being said, I definitely don’t recommend heating your dildos to those temperatures unless you want some seriously burned bits!
You might be more familiar with Pyrex glass, which is essentially a brand-name borosilicate glass! As well as being popular for cook wear, borosilicate glass is also used in medical devices and lab equipment, so you know it’s safe stuff!
Although borosilicate glass can still break, it can withstand more impact than regular glass, so the chance of a borosilicate glass dildo breaking from regular usage is minimal.
I’m incredibly clumsy and my favorite glass dildo is still going strong! It’s been chilled, boiled, dropped and bashed about!
I do, however, make sure to check it on a regular basis for any signs of damage. If you notice any small cracks or chips, it’s time to say bid farewell and get yourself a new one!
Soda Lime Glass
Most glass dildos are made from borosilicate glass. You may know it as the kind of glass that Pyrex used to be made from. It’s very sturdy, scratch-proof and resistant to extreme temperatures.
You might have also heard of some glass dildos made from soda lime glass. This is another very common type of glass, which is used in windows, glass containers and more. It’s very strong too, though not quite as much as borosilicate glass, and is not quite as resistant to temperature shock. However, it can still really take a beating, and is perfectly safe to use in sex toys.
When glass dildos are made, they also go through a process called annealing (or cooling). This relieves stress in the glass and makes it more resistant to breaking. Almost all glass sex toys go through this process, so the likelihood of them breaking inside of you is infinitesimally small.
Glass Dildo Hygiene
Glass is one of the best materials to make sex toys out of when it comes to hygiene.
It’s non-porous, which means that it doesn’t have any holes or pores on its surface that can trap germs and dirt. This means glass dildos are 100% body-safe dildos, and you don’t have to worry about infections or pH imbalances when you use them.
Cleaning glass dildos is easy. All you need is some warm water and a mild, unscented soap. Lather it up, getting into all the crevices and textures, and then rinse it off and let it dry. That’s all you need to make sure it’s ready and clean for the next time you use it!
If you want to go a step further and sterilize it (which can be a good idea if you’re sharing it or if you use it anally) then you can boil it in a pot of water for 1-3 minutes. Place a cloth in the pot first, or place your sex toy in a mesh laundry bag to avoid damaging either the toy or the pot as it bounces around.
To prevent damaging your glass sex toys while you’re not using them, store them in a pouch or box. Some glass dildos come with storage pouches, but otherwise they can be cheaply found on stores like Lovehoney.
Different Types of Glass Sex Toys for Different Purposes
Let’s get started on some of different kinds of glass sex toys available – what do they do, how do they feel, and who are they most suited for?
Straight Dildos
Let’s start with a classic.
A simple, sleek, and straight dildo gets straight to the point! It’s the ideal choice for those who aren’t looking for super intense g-spot massage but still want to enjoy some firm thrusting.
Easy insertion and frictionless motions await you with this type of glass sex toy!
Beaded Dildos
A beaded shaft can provide you with delicious sensations during internal stimulation both vaginally and (especially) anally!
It’s a good way to enjoy some kind of texture if you’re not into those small bumps and ridges that can add very intense texture.
Realistic Dildos
Just because you’re playing with glass dildos, you don’t have to live without the realistic shape of a penis!
Although the extra firm sensation may not feel very life-like, you will at least be able to recognize the shape of a penis with realistic glass dildo
Spiralled Dildos
Other than being visually impressive, this type of toy provides waves of unique sensations of gentle twists rather than thrusts. It’s a great toy for varied internal stimulation!
Pleasure Wands/Double-Ended Dildos
Some glass dildos are also known as “glass wands”. Maybe because they seem to possess some kind of magic quality… They are typically called this because they have a lot of versatile use to offer both externally and internally.
These (often double-ended dildos) typically have bulbous tips, strategically curved shapes, or wonderfully textured shafts. That’s why these babies are great for intense g-spot or A-spot stimulation!
They’re also great for sensual massage, nipple play, and some good old temperature play, of course!
Butt Plugs
The smooth and heavy glass is a perfect material for butt plugs. They feel super satisfying to wear and add some amazing pressure during penetrative sex.
The classic shape is obviously available in whichever color, shape, or size you desire. Even the most simple plug can look like a piece of art when it’s made of glass!
Prostate Massagers
Some glass toys make exceptionally efficient prostate massagers! With a curved and bulbous design made specifically to stimulate your p-spot, these glass tools provide the ultimate prostate massage with its solid surface!
Juicers
Juicers are a type of glass sex toy that can be used either vaginally or anally and spun around to mimic the motion of “juicing” something.
Hear me out, the dildo is inserted (with plenty of lube!) and then the crank is pulled to spin the dildo around to enjoy the sensations of the textured shaft or rounded head!
Novelty Dildos
Another type of glass dildo enters a more artistic sphere…
Novelty glass dildos can be as beautiful as they can be creative! Whether you’re looking for a seasonal candy cane dildo, a (literally) spicy chili pepper glass dildo, or a fantasy tentacle glass dildo, there are some great novelty glass dildo out there for you to explore!
Ben Wa Balls
Ben Wa balls are a type of glass sex toy that combine arousal with elegance. These are the perfect step up for those looking to take their kegel training to the next level. When worn regularly, Ben Wa balls help strengthen your pelvic floor which might lead to stronger orgasms.
Glass Vibrators
Yes, you read that correctly. Glass vibrators are totally a thing. We even found some of the best glass vibrators that you maybe didn’t even know existed!
Some are even remote controlled and features a suction cup base for hands free thrusting. Combine the sensations of glass with the powerful ripples of vibration!
A Guide to Glass Dildo Brands
There a few brands that specialise in making only glass dildos in different mesmerising designs! I’m going to give you a run down of the most popular ones here.
You might also notice that there are a lot of similar designs across the brands. This could be due to the design being a white label product, meaning it’s available for brands to buy and market as their own. It’s also, unfortunately, not unheard of for brands to steal designs from other brands.
Icicles
Icicles is a Pipedream brand. Each of their glass dildos is hand-blown from borosilicate glass.
The range features both phallic and non-representational dildos, glass butt plugs, and even some vibrating glass toys.
I think the Icicles range are very affordable while still being great quality!
Gläs
Gläs also produces hand-blown borosilicate glass dildos and sex toys.
I really love their aesthetic with swirling muted colors.
One of their signature designs in their ‘juicer’ style dildos and plugs that have a handle for rotating the toy inside you rather than only thrusting it in and out.
Lovehoney
Lovehoney also have their own range of glass dildos all made from hand-blown borosilicate glass.
Although their selection is pretty small, there are still some super cute designs to choose from!
Chrystalino
Chystalino is a Shots brand that’s known for it’s stunning sapphire blue color.
Their designs tend to err towards more simple silhouettes with less textural details than other brands.
What to Consider When Buying a Glass Dildo
Now that you’ve decided you want to buy a glass dildo, it’s time to turn your attention to making the best possible purchasing decision! Fortunately, there aren’t too many things to consider when picking out a toy, but you should still make sure to check every one of this list before placing your order.
- Size – Whether you’re talking about glass butt plugs or glass dildos, proper sizing is important if you want to get the most pleasure from your new toy! You’ll want to check both the length and the girth of any contender. Girth can be represented in circumference or diameter (width). Keep in mind that you may want to err on the side of caution in terms of size. Since glass is so rigid, it feels a lot more intense and has a lot less give than squishy, silicone toys.
- Shape – Many glass dildos are more abstract in design with different shapes, ribs, bumps, and swirls for extra stimulation. For a more stimulating experience, choose a toy with more texture variety or if you are looking for g-spot stimulation, look for one with a curved bulbed tip.
- Use – If you want a glass dildo for anal use, it must have a flared base or stopper to prevent it from being fully inserted. Consider if you’re looking for something that offers both anal and vaginal pleasure. In this case, double-ended glass dildos with bulbous tips are a great option
- Price – Luckily, your budget won’t be the determining factor for whether or not you get a high quality glass dildo. Decent quality glass dildos tend to be relatively affordable, with most falling into the $20-$40 price bracket. In my experience, you won’t be promised extraordinary pleasure with more expensive glass dildos. You may get to enjoy some luxurious designs or storage options for more money, but, in terms of performance, you can get yourself a good glass dildo without having to break bank!
How Do You Know if Your Glass Dildo is Legit?
Not all glass dildos are created equally. We’ve gone over above how glass dildos are safe to use, but it’s important to note that not all of them meet the same standards.
The easiest way to make sure that your glass sex toys are made from the legit stuff is to buy from a reputable and trustworthy sex toy store. We’ve made a list of our favorite online sex toy stores, but there are plenty of brick-and-mortar ones, too.
The store should be clear about the brand of the dildo you’re looking at. That way, you can check for yourself if the brand seems legit and is made from the right stuff. Some of the glass sex toy brands we recommend are Icicles, Gläs, Crystal Delights, Crystalino, and Lovehoney’s own Sensual Glass toys. Whichever brand you go for, remember that you also get what you pay for, and a cheap glass dildo is never going to meet the same standards as a more expensive one.
Whatever you do, avoid shopping for sex toys at stores like Amazon, Wish and Aliexpress. They source their stock from anywhere and everywhere, and you have no way of knowing where or how that dildo was made. That also means you can’t trust any claims made about it.
Whenever you buy a glass dildo, you should check if its safe to use by looking for scratches or cracks before you use it. If you’re really worried, it is also possible to examine the glass for invisible weaknesses. Read all about how it’s done in this post by Dangerous Lilly.
What Makes Glass Dildos So Special?
Why Glass Dildos Feel So Good
Glass dildos, and, by proxy, any dildo made from a hard material, provide super firm stimulation. There’s no give or squish with glass, so you can really apply some pressure when you use it.
Why is that important? Well, both the vagina and the inner part of the anal canal respond really well to pressure, but not touch. Think about if you have a finger (yours or someone else’s) up there — you can’t feel the touch itself, but you do notice when you press harder or apply more pressure to an area.
Firm massage with a glass dildo is a fantastic way to get some incredible g-spot stimulation, as well as a-spot and prostate stimulation. In fact, if you’ve tried a g-spot vibrator or anal vibrator and found that it didn’t really do it for you, then you may well prefer a glass dildo. Something about the firm manual massage of glass just can’t be beaten!
High Quality, Fracture-Resistant, Durable Glass
A good quality glass dildo is typically made from borosilicate glass. It’s the kind of glass that Pyrex products are also made of. It’s super durable, sturdy, scratch-proof, and does well with extreme temperature changes.
This glass also goes through an annealling (cooling) process that relieves stress in the glass. It makes the glass a lot more fracture-resistant and safe to use for vigorous pleasure sessions. So, yes, good quality glass dildos are very safe to use!
Hygienic & Hypoallergenic
Glass is one of the safest materials to use for insertable pleasure. It’s hypoallergenic and completely non-porous. This means no microscopic holes in the surface of the toy will gather any dirt or bacteria over time. For a thorough clean, all you need is some warm water and a mild soap!
Even better, you can fully sterilize your glass dildo in some boiling water for a few minutes. This makes it super easy to use both anally and vaginally!
Since glass doesn’t absorb any lubricant, you can use whatever type of lube you prefer! No more sticking to water-based lube to avoid damaging your toy.
Temperature Play
One of the best features of glass sex toys is getting to play around with hot and cold sensations! Glass is very temperature responsive and it will quickly warm up or cool down if you run it under the tap or put it in the fridge.
Experiment with some sensual temperature play with your partner, or use it as a tool for solo pleasure-mapping. Sometimes these hot and cold sensations can add a whole new layer of intimacy to your pleasure!
