Hand-carved Marble Fruit: Made in Italy
Nature's Competition: Life-like Marble Fruit
One look at these extraordinarily life-like marble fruit
sculptures created by skilled Italian artisans in Tuscany and you will swear they
are nature’s own bounty! Individually hand-sculpted and hand-painted, these works of art are imported from renowned Tuscan marble works.
 This exquisite, heirloom marble
fruit is known for its incredibly realistic appearance and the highest quality Carrara marble. The prized white Carrara marble that is used to create the pieces is mined from the
same quarries in Italy that supplied Michelangelo with the raw material to produce
his outstanding sculptures ‘David’ and ‘Pieta’.
Each piece is a unique work of art not mass-produced like other faux fruits. The artisans sculpt,
paint and use a traditional aged process to add texture to each individual piece. Therefore, not
one looks the same as the next – just like real fruit.
Whether you are adding some
flair to your dining room table or purchasing a timeless apple for your
favorite teacher, marble fruit is a true piece of Italian art that will return years of enjoyment for generations to come.
