In the past, paper was an expensive commodity, so playing cards were not simply thrown away when they were bent or dirty. They were pressed flat again after use in a press like this one.
Beautifully executed card press in rosewood with inlays of mother-of-pearl, silver and with ivory knobs. This one is from the end of the 19th century. It is in very good condition.
A knob is missing.
