I inherited these gold and crystal grapes along with a bunch of other items some of are which are valuable and others are just pretty or fun. I want to know if they are swaroski crystals, and real gold. I didn't see a mark but i don't really know what i am looking for or where to look? They are very heavy and sit on a mirror. Swarvoski or not i would like to know more about them. Maker, Age, Value and how to care for and clean them them. Thank you for any info or help you can provide.

those are very similar to mine, however mine is twice the size weight and number of grapes..

Since the leaves and such are the same you can assume they were made by the same company !! Especially since the company didn`t put their mark on them !! They usually had more than one size in decorative objects whoever made them !!

Market is not good for much of anything right now !! Give me a while and I will see if I can find anything recent !! Got to go feed the horses first !!

That is what I usually make on on Sunday, but I slept in and didn't get it in the crockpot soon enough. Lol I guess burgers and veggies from my garden will have to do.
