Hand-carved from solid alabaster, it features softly mottled tones of peach, amber, and cream, with natural veining throughout. Subtle hand-painted “bruise” marks were often added to pieces like this to enhance realism—an intentional detail that gives the fruit its lifelike character rather than perfection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"852\" data-start=\"551\"\u003eOriginally made as a decorative object, pieces like this were designed to add sculptural interest to interiors without shouting for attention.
