You are looking at an very nice antique victorian mantel clock. This clock is made of a black onyx marble slate. Also the movement is the same style as most Tiffany Co. clocks from this era. (JUST BY LOOKING AT MARBLE TIFFANY CLOCKS) It does not have the stamp or any marks from Tiffany Co. I believe this clock was made some w around 1870. This clock is fairly large. It stands 18 1/2" Tall X 19" Wide X 5 3/4" Thick. This clock has some very fine detailing, that makes it a very beautiful piece to display anyw The marble is great, but then you add the side and front decorative pieces made from a cast iron. It makes this clock unique. T are 2 small India looking Princess on each side and one large on the front bottom. The madalion looking piece on the front top looks like some one from roam. All of the pieces have gold paint or Gold leaf trimming. I do not know what these pieces mean, but they add alot of shape to the clock. If these decorations are not enough, t is some very ornate etching on the clock filled with a gold paint or gold leaf. Unsure of the gold. T is some ware to the gold. Very grand clock. The face of the clock is made of pocelian. It is in mint condition. Very hard to find these faces in such pristene condition. The numbers have a very unique font style. The movement is in working order. The pendulum is made of brass and has an adjustment for the speed. It keeps great time. It chimes every hour and every half hour. I did find out it does have to be on a level suface to run. The hammer arm for the chime is a little loose. Sure it would be cheap fix. Also the clock seems to chime at about 7 past the hour and 37 past the hour. Also should be a cheap fix. Oh yea. You may need a key. This clock does not come with one. The marble does have some chipping. Most of the chips are on the top back edge. T are no cracks in the slate. This clock is heavy. It is about 55 LBS. I have taken alot of pictures. If you need more, feel free to ask for more and I will email them. Or if you just have a question, dont be bashful. This is an estate item. So I only know what I see. A very unique clock! If you like this clock, I will have a few more I will be listing. A Seth Thomas Weight Wall clock and a Gilbert Regulator wall clock (Observatory). So you will have to take a look at my other listings. Shipping other than USPS can be cheaper. I will ship this item DHL Or UPS. Just ask for a quote. I will combine shipping if possable. I will also ship to Canada and over sea's.
