Coco-de-Mer Erotic Emporium
Updated review for a site we listed two years ago. At the time, they were located only in the U.K., although they shipped worldwide. Now they have a U.S. based store (Los Angeles) as well, so you can pick which site to go to on the splash page. This is an absolutely gorgeously designed website. Coco-de-mer is a real life retail store in London, and this web counterpart offers indulgent online shopping. The interface is Flash designed - mouse over different site components and you'll find the store philosophy, an erotic movie, info on events held at the actual store location, and the web store. I had a wonderful time just exploring the site, the imagery was truly lovely. You'll find incredible boutique items, such as very unique handmade silk lingerie, various lotions and potions, a careful selection of spanking implements, and sextoys that are truly distinctive in material: jade cockrings, sterling silver and glass dildos, and so on. The price range is at the high end, given the materials used, but if you're looking for a sex toy that is art in and of itself, this is a place to find it. Shopping is via secure online storefront, prices in sterling pounds. The shipping charges are fairly expensive to the United States, because of customs fees, and less expensive within the UK and Europe. The privacy policy, contact info and shipping/returns info was all exemplary. - Jane
