Vintage Decorative Polished Stone Green Grapes with Dark Green Carved Stone Leaves 7.75″

$75.00

This polished stone grape cluster is likely made of Italian alabaster or marble.  Vintage carved fruit is enjoying renewed popularity as it recalls dining table décor of the 1950s and 1960s, objects gathered by lucky travelers on their European vacations. Decorative faux grapes and other fruits have long been used as elegant centerpieces and when hand crafted of stone, such as these, they elevate the ordinary to the extraordinary–no squishy rubber grapes here.  The grapes are hand cut and polished.  The color is a very realistic pale green, and just like the real thing, they look good enough to eat.  Depending on the light, the stone appears semi translucent, with an almost pearl-like glow. There are naturally-occurring inclusions in a few of the grapes.  Silk-wrapped flexible wires are inserted into the grapes as stems, and two silk-wrapped prongs in the back allow for positioning the grapes in a curved upright position, if desired. The leaves are also made of carved stone in a very dark green with nicely detailed white veining and edges. The main stem at the very top is gnarly, very detailed and realistic as well.  There are curly wire tendrils simulating those found on an actual grapevine.  Excellent craftsmanship.  The cluster measures approx. 7.75″ long x 5.5″ at its widest, depending on how the leaves are positioned.  Excellent preowned vintage condition with no damage.  There are a few tiny felt pads on the back side added by a previous owner.  Great shelf- or coffee-table styling piece.

    Wonderful experience, meticulous packaging!

    I purchased two items from this shop. They arrived surprisingly quickly, and it was evident that extreme care was taken to ensure they arrived safely. I greatly appreciate the attention and extra care when packaging up the items. How sad it would be to purchase an antique that has survived multiple generations, only to be destroyed by USPS! Thank you so much for a wonderful shopping experience!
