The making of the sex toys, by Jeff Zimmerman and Michael Reynolds

Wallpaper* Handmade steered decorously clear of sex - until 2014. Our collection of pleasure objects, or 'Adult Tool Kit', was made under the careful watch of glass artist Jeff Zimmerman and our US editor Michael Reynolds. Hand-blown in black glass, it was inspired by Zimmerman's artistic experimentation with phalluses, which caught Reynolds' eye on a studio visit over a decade ago. The leatherwork is by accessories specialist TM1985 and the hair by stylist Peter Matteliano. Aside from their obvious erotic charge, the sculptural objects possess an undeniable beauty.
