A leather on card Case probably for calling cards but possibly for cigarettes.

The top is heavily tooled in a Persian inspired design. It fixes to the case by a simple strap fitting through a tight belt loop. The underside of the lid is finished in a brown silk and is marked 'Made In Austria' to the turned over leather edge. The case interior is lined in dark blue leather.

The busy decoration to top of this case makes it stand out and is instantly recognisable as Austrian. Early 20th Century.
