This “French Carved Mother of Pearl Carnet De Bal / Dance Card Marker” found a buyer.

It was listed by The Fancy Fox. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.

Description

Pretty French mother of pearl dance card marker with shaped sides and finely carved detail to one side of flowers , foliage and scrolls against a textured background. Mounted with white metal pin and clasp and filled with 6 ivory pages, some charmingly still with the remnants of written names and notes.

It measures 6.5cm by 4cm wide and 0.6cm deep. Condition is good with a couple of small points to note: on the reverse, the small disc that sits under the pin is missing so the pages move quite freely but are secured. There are a couple of small splits to the edges of the ivory on a couple of the pages. Some light surface wear appropriate for age.

Date of Manufacture

The Fancy Fox has dated this piece to the 1880s.
