It looks to be the fruit of a Bittersweet Nightshade (Solanum dulcamara L.). Plant & fruit are poisonous. Stems dark, sometimes purple.

Beautiful pic, not a rose hip, the leaves do not look like a rose. Is it a bush, tree, or just plant? Almost looks like a wild cherry. Indoors, or outdoors? What country/zone is it growing? Need more information.

Definitely not a rose hip, I think it may be some kind of crabapple or maybe a hawthorn.I would need a little more info to be sure though.
