The making of the sex toys, by Jeff Zimmerman and Michael Reynolds
See our collection of pleasure objects, or 'Adult Tool Kit', take shape under the artistic eye of glass specialist Jeff Zimmerman
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.
