Official store description:
Sex Objects, By n8 Spectacular, provides hand crafted objects of desire. We understand that a work of art may provide an aesthetic experience that transcends mere observation. We invite you to explore and interact with objects of art whose purpose is to excite and stimulate desire, passion and an exploration of newfound states of bliss. These sex objects are designed to be explored alone or with a lover, with whom you share unknown boundaries. The awakening of unknown pleasures awaits.
Nothing feels quite like glass. The substance has gone through an alchemical process whereby, through intense heat and creative forces, this glass has been transmuted into a form so as to provide you with the pleasure you seek. The glass is a conductor of vibrations and the silver and gold are conductors of energy, The combination of precious metal and glass is in essence creating a conduit through which your sexual vibrations and spirit energy may freely flow. Sex Objects are instruments of delight.
n8 Spectacular, the owner and creator of Sex Objects, is a Brooklyn based artist and musician. He recently started blowing glass as a means of escaping the “rat-race.” After decades of being punished by office work, he has decided to focus on his life and helping people to achieve more pleasurable and satisfying lives.
So what is the story behind the name of his shop? n8 Spectacular says that “[Sex Objects] is a term that is often used as debasement or to reduce a relationship to or the idea of one’s sex partner to an idea of objectification. I’m taking back the term, these Sex Objects are to be worshiped and coveted while exploring ecstasy.”
When asked about his work, n8 said:
I see my work as following in the tradition of alchemy and artisanship. I work with glass and precious metals. The glass is a conductor of vibrational energy and the metals are conductors of spiritual energy. The combination of these properties has made glass the perfect medium for the channeling of sexual energy for either masturbation, making love, or even the debauched explorations of ravenous sexual exaltation. My Sex Objects take anywhere from 2-6 hours of continuous work with temperatures averaging 3000 degrees Fahrenheit. They are hard to make and each one has been seriously labored and sweat over, by the time it has been completed.
Not only does n8 make fabulous glass dildos, but he is also a multimedia/video/audio artist who specializes in Erotic Arty. You can experience more of his work at XXX Sex Parade Recordings or Progressive Erotica.
The Creators Favorites
Creators, like parents, will always say that all of their creations are their favorites and all are loved equally. Well unlike children, it is much easier to pick out your favorite works of art, so here are a couple of n8 Spectacular favorite items.
Silver Icicle
This beautifully shaped silver fumed alchemical conductor of orgasmic energy will delight you with it’s hourglass icicle styled design. It is a dual ended multipurpose Sex Object that has been crafted with your deepest pleasure in mind.
Why does n8 Spectacular like this one? “The variation of thickness on this one are extreme, but once you get over the hump, it’s good for the tension, start to pull it out, but…don’t, then back in and spinning it helps too.”
So lets look at some specs. The Silver Icicle measures 7.73/4″ in length and is made from durable borosilicate glass which has been fired in a kiln for strength.
Magic’s Wand
This is an amazing piece that seems to come alive with shimmering energetic purpose. It has a multipurpose design intended for possibilities that only the wildest imagination could conjure up.
n8 Spectaculars view on this one: “This one is versatile. The nubby handle is great for anal penetration, but flip it around and you can get deep and satisfying vaginal penetration. The silver is beautiful and conducts orgasmic energy with brilliant radiance.”
The Magic’s Wand, like the Silver Icicle, measures 7.73/4″ in length and is made from durable borosilicate glass which has been fired in a kiln for strength.

Wow, what a great write-up! I really like what N8 had to say about his work and the reasons behind it.
The whole reclaiming sex objects thing has been an ongoing conversation. Some men feel guilty when they are sexually attracted to women because of the concept that seeing women as sexual makes them inherently objects (‘objects of the gaze’ as the academic feminists often say).
I argue that recognizing someone as beautiful or attractive is just as wonderful as recognizing that someone is smart or good at music. It’s a valuable part of their identity. Everyone wants to feel sexy.
Amen. Nothing like glass.
