I've never seen a Mother-of-Pearl plaque as large as this - 114 x 72mm (4-1/2" x 2-7/8").
For those of you who have the book "CASINOS" by Ralph Tegtmeier (1989), turn to pg.117 and you'll see three of these pieces that are from the Caro Collection - Paris.
From the day I first saw this piece in the book I said to myself that I've just got to have it.
Now, I, along with a few others, have added those pieces seen on that page to our collection.
Congratulations, guys!
JB
