Mother of Pearl Calling Card Case, Victorian.

Lovely Victorian card case - made in mother of pearl with contrast triangles of New Zealand paua shell.  Concertina card holders inside, with silk lining.  Case measures 108 mm x 76 mm x 20 mm (4.1/4 inches by 3 inches by 3/4 inch).  Very good condition, a few minor faults: slight loss of shell to a couple of the corners (see photo), and some tears to the card compartments inside.  Dates to late 19th century.
