Description

Victorian Tortoiseshell Calling Card Case prized for its rich, warm tones and elegant, natural patterns. The smooth surface of the tortoiseshell is beautifully complemented by the mother of pearl floral inlay, which adds a delicate and refined touch. The inlaid floral motif features intricate petals and leaves, creating a charming contrast against the darker, shimmering surface of the tortoiseshell.

Designed to hold calling cards, this piece reflects the Victorian era’s emphasis on etiquette and social rituals, where calling card cases were essential accessories for individuals of high status. The floral inlay showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail that was characteristic of the period, with the mother of pearl providing a subtle yet stunning enhancement.
