Hand-Blown Glass Dildo 14.5 cm, 3.8 cm — Icicles n°07

Hand-blown glass, short and dense

The Icicles n°07 sits right between a dildo and a plug: 14.5 cm is compact, and its shape works just as well for thrusting as for wearing in place. The hand-blown glass explains the finish, and the price.

Short, dense, and versatile

The short shape puts the focus on the entrance and the first few centimeters, which is where most of the nerve endings are. A lot of guys overestimate how much length they actually need.

295 g in this small a shape is dense. You feel the weight once it's in place, and it helps hold pressure without any effort.

3.8 cm is a middle-ground size: more than a beginner plug, less than a truly thick one. A good balance for someone with a bit of practice already.

Glass glides with zero drag. It's the smoothest material there is once lubed up.

Temperature play works especially well on a compact shape like this: the mass heats or cools fast and holds that temperature for several minutes.

Two ways to use it

As a dildo, with slow back-and-forth strokes. The rigidity gives you exact control over depth.

As a plug, inserted and left in place while you do something else. The weight and the initial coolness make it a very different feeling from a silicone plug.

Stay in control. The shape forms a stopper but this isn't a flared-base plug: keep a hand on it, don't leave it unattended.

Decide on the temperature beforehand. Warm water for a neutral feel, cold water for the sensation. Tap water only.

Any lube works, silicone lube lasts longer.

Inspect before every use.

How to use it without messing it up

Prep is everything. The ass doesn't open on command. A warm shower, a few minutes to relax, one or two lubed fingers, maybe a thinner plug to warm up: that's what separates a good session from one you cut short.

Lots of lube, and keep adding more. The anus doesn't produce any lubrication on its own. Put some on the toy, at the entrance, and inside too if you have an applicator. The moment it starts to drag, add more — it's the lack of lube that causes micro-tears, not the diameter.

Go in stages. Present the tip, let your body adjust, push gently, stop the second you feel resistance. Getting past the widest point is the critical moment: slow down, don't force it.

Exhale as you push. That relaxes the sphincter. Holding your breath does the exact opposite.

If it hurts, you stop. Pressure, a stretch: normal. Sharp pain, a burning sensation, blood: pull out and let things settle. Pain is not a step you push through.

Position helps. Squatting, lying on your side with one knee up, on your back with legs raised, or one foot up on the edge of the tub. Standing straight up is the worst setup.

Pull out slowly, never in one sharp motion.

This size works for a first try. The diameter stays in an accessible range. Aim for twenty minutes for a first session, and don't try to take it all on the first go.

Anal safety: what you need to know

A wide base is what makes anal use safe. The rectum pulls inward: an object without a stopper wide enough can travel up and get stuck. This model has the base it needs — but never repurpose an object that doesn't have one, and never use a toy whose base is damaged.

Stay in control. Even with a base, keep a hand on it or anchor it by its suction cup. You never let go of a dildo while it's inside you.

Clean before and after, every time. Gut flora doesn't belong anywhere else, and a poorly cleaned toy leads straight to an infection.

One toy per person, or a condom changed between each. It's simpler and more reliable than a rushed cleaning job.

Whatever goes in the ass doesn't go anywhere else without being washed first.

Bleeding, pain that lingers, or a fever after a session: see a doctor. It's almost never serious if you don't let it sit.

Cleaning and care

Compatible with all lubricants. Water, silicone or hybrid: glass doesn't react with anything. Might as well take advantage — silicone lube lasts longer.

Inspect it before every use. Hold it up to the light and look for a chip, a crack, a deep scratch. A chipped glass toy doesn't get used again, it gets thrown out. That's the one real precaution with this material.

Cleaning: warm water and soap, or toy cleaner. Glass is non-porous, which makes it the most hygienic material in the catalog — and the only one that truly sterilizes.

Watch out for impacts. Borosilicate is very tough but not unbreakable. Don't set it down on the edge of a sink and don't store it touching hard objects.

Temperature play: warm or cold tap water, a few minutes. Never boiling water, never the freezer, never the microwave.

FAQ — Your questions, our answers

Q: Is this a dildo or a plug?

A: Both work. Its shape forms a stopper and lets you keep it in place, but it's not a flared-base plug: keep a hand on it rather than forgetting about it.

Q: Why does hand-blown glass cost more?

A: Each piece is shaped individually, with a finish and surface consistency that industrial molding can't match. On an object that goes inside your body, that surface quality is noticeable.

Q: What lube should I use?

A: All of them, no restrictions — water, silicone or hybrid. This material doesn't react with any of them, and silicone lube lasts longer.

Q: Can I share it?

A: Yes, no problem. This material is non-porous and cleans perfectly. A condom is still simplest if you're switching partners mid-session.
