About
Elevate your styling with this exquisitely crafted 19th-century antique mother-of-pearl calling card case. A breathtaking relic from the Victorian era, it features an intricate harlequin pattern composed of diamond-shaped tiles carved from natural nacre. When it catches the light, the mosaic creates a mesmerizing, multi-dimensional play of iridescent silver, soft pink, and luminous seafoam green tones.

Its incredible historic character and visual charm make it an exceptional styling piece for the modern home. It makes a jewel-like statement layered over a coffee table book alongside a favorite candle, or placed as a conversation piece on a vanity tray.

Dimensions
4”H x 3”W

Condition
This piece is in great antique condition and is priced to reflect its unique functionality as a styling object. The natural mother-of-pearl parquet tiles retain an extraordinarily bright, high-gloss luster. Please note that the original latch mechanism does not hold a firm click, and there is one very minor, tiny piece of mother-of-pearl missing from the edge mosaic, as pictured.
