Gillie is right; it is a thread winder. They used to be made from all sorts of different materials, mother of pearl (like yours), other types of shell, wood etc, before we had those cardboard things that come in kits today. Cardboard is a lot cheaper though.

Yes, I think it's a thread winder, but they are still being made in all shapes!
Whatever it is, it's beautiful!
