A striking and monumental example of Mid-Century Italian decorative art. This hand-carved alabaster grape cluster embodies the exuberance of 1970s Italian design, rendered in a rare sunset ombré palette. Each sphere is individually turned from genuine alabaster and hand-dyed in graduating tones of golden amber, honey, tangerine, and crimson. The high-gloss polish enhances the stone’s natural translucence and marbling, creating a luminous, jewel-like effect. The cluster is artfully arranged on a naturalistic driftwood stem, its organic form providing a rustic counterpoint to the refined craftsmanship of the grapes. This piece is characteristic of the Italian dolce vita aesthetic popularized during the Hollywood Regency
