The decorative pattern on the exterior is crafted from marble slices. Artisans meticulously sourced marble with suitable veining and then painstakingly polished them into thin sheets—a testament to their highly skilled and effort-intensive artistry. The shimmering material around the edges appears to be hand-painted with silver. This antique business card holder, over a century old, may show the patina of time, but its early, refined craftsmanship and the authentic aura of an aged item make it a piece truly worthy of collection. *Please feel free to message the designer with any detailed inquiries. *Our shop primarily features Western antiques, vintage jewelry, home decor, and European original prints.
