The arrangement includes numerous glass grape clusters in amber, pink, smoky purple, dark plum, and vivid green, together with clear molded glass leaves and larger hand-formed glass fruit.

Several of the grape clusters are made of uranium glass and fluoresce an intense bright green under UV/black light. The strong UV reaction creates a striking contrast with the surrounding multicolored glass grapes and makes this piece especially appealing to collectors of uranium and fluorescent antique glass.

The combination of uranium glass grape clusters, multicolored Bohemian art glass fruit, and the decorative openwork metal basket creates an unusual and highly decorative early 20th-century display piece.
