In Sartre's Huis clos (No Exit), there's a coupe-papier on the mantlepiece that's mentioned in the first scene (it's like a letter opener, for cutting the page edges of new books --since in France books were often sold with uncut pages so customers couldn't read the books in the store).
It's only a one-act play, but the coupe-papier does get used in the last scene.
