Each polished stone grape displays subtle variations in color, veining, and translucency, giving the piece the organic character associated with vintage Italian alabaster decorative objects.

Popular during the mid-20th century, stone fruit and grape clusters were often produced in Italy as decorative tabletop accessories. This piece being 12-inch example works beautifully styled on a coffee table, console, bookshelf, or incorporated into a collected still-life arrangement.
The grapes retain a glossy polished finish with natural mineral variation throughout. Minor surface wear and small irregularities are consistent with age and the nature of the stone. Please review photographs for condition. See less
