Decorative fruit, particularly grapes, has been a popular motif in art and home decor for centuries, symbolizing abundance, fertility, and prosperity. In the mid-20th century, especially during the Mid-Century Modern era, decorative items made from materials like glass, alabaster, and resin became highly fashionable for interior design. These pieces were often crafted to mimic natural forms with a stylized, often vibrant, aesthetic.

These decorative grape clusters were commonly used as centerpieces, mantelpiece decorations, or as accents on shelves and sideboards. They were produced by various manufacturers and artisans, with some pieces becoming collectible due to their unique design, material quality, or historical period. The use of translucent green, reminiscent of jade or certain grape varieties, was particularly popular during this time. See less
