Description
Elegant faceted crystal grape cluster figurine featuring approximately 30-40 individual sparkling crystal orbs. The cluster is topped with ornate gold-tone leaves and suspended from a matching gold-plated curved hanging stand. The entire piece rests on a heavy, faceted octagonal crystal base that catches light from all angles.
Key Features
High sparkle factor, 24k gold-plated accents, classic 'Crystal Memories' aesthetic, includes original display stand which adds height and shelf presence.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence it is lead crystal; Medium confidence it is Swarovski (look for the laser-etched Swan logo or 'S.C.' square logo on the base or leaf). If unbranded, it is a high-quality 'Crystal Temptations' or similar boutique brand.
Flaws to Note
Possible micro-chips on the sharp edges of the faceted base; dust accumulation between grapes requires delicate cleaning; potential loss of gold plating on the hanging hook.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
eBay (broadest reach for crystal collectors), Etsy (if confirmed 20+ years old for vintage category), or Facebook Marketplace for local sales to avoid shipping breakage.
Selling Tips
Photograph against a solid dark background with bright side-lighting to make the facets 'pop.' Use keywords like 'Faceted Lead Crystal,' 'Prism,' 'Sun Catcher,' and 'Grapes.' Double-box for shipping with ample bubble wrap as the grapes are fragile points of contact.
