Why choose platinum cured silicone for a dildo? Silicone is cured, or set, with a catalyst. Platinum curing is the method used for higher grade silicone. The finished material is smooth and non-porous, so it does not soak up fluids or hold on to odors, and it washes clean with soap and water. For a toy that goes inside the body, that is the main practical advantage. All Avant toys, including the D15 Vision of Love, are made of platinum cured silicone and sculpted by hand in their original form.
Avant D15 Vision of Love: slim, petite and hand-sculpted
The Avant D15 Vision of Love is a small dildo from Blush's Avant line of artisan-style toys, whose forms are sculpted by hand. It is made of platinum cured silicone and measures 5.5 inches long, with 5 inches insertable and a 1.25 inch width. The shaft is tapered, which keeps insertion gradual and comfortable.
The distributor describes it as slim, petite and suited to beginners or to anal play. It is also harness compatible, so it can be worn in a strap-on for partner use. There is no motor, so it is silent and has nothing to charge.
Best for: For first-time dildo buyers and anyone who prefers a slimmer toy. Its modest width suits gentle vaginal use and pegging with a harness, where a small, tapered dildo is often the comfortable place to begin.

How to use
Wash the dildo with mild soap and warm water before first use. Apply water-based lubricant along the shaft and to yourself. Begin with the tapered tip and go slowly, letting your body adjust before taking more of the length. For anal play, use extra lubricant, keep a firm hold of the base at all times and never let the base pass inside the body. For strap-on use, fit the dildo through the harness ring so the base sits flat against the harness, then adjust the straps until it feels stable.
Care
- Use water-based lubricant only; silicone lubricant can damage silicone toys.
- Wash with warm water and mild soap before and after each use.
- Dry it completely before storing.
- Store it separately from other toys, away from sunlight and heat.
- Clean it thoroughly between anal and vaginal use.

Frequently asked questions
How big is the Avant D15?
It is 5.5 inches long with 5 inches insertable, and 1.25 inches wide. The distributor calls it slim and petite. The tapered shaft is narrower still toward the tip, which makes it a sensible size for a first toy.
Can it be used for anal play?
The distributor recommends it for beginner or anal play and lists it as harness compatible. The facts do not describe the base in detail, so hold the base firmly or wear it in a harness during anal use.
Does it have a suction cup?
The facts list a tapered shaft and harness compatibility but do not mention a suction cup for the D15. If hands-free use on a surface matters to you, the Avant D16 Purple Haze is listed with a suction cup base.
How is it different from the Avant D16 Purple Haze?
The D15 is shorter, at 5.5 inches with 5 inches insertable, and has a tapered shaft. The D16 is 6.5 inches with 5.25 inches insertable, has a pronounced corona for G-spot or prostate stimulation, and adds a suction cup. Both are 1.25 inches wide.
Which lubricant should I use?
Choose a water-based lubricant. It is safe on platinum cured silicone and rinses off with water. Avoid silicone-based lubricants, which can bond with the surface and spoil its finish. Reapply as needed.
