Condition: Black marble case with red marble inserts is in nice condition with a small chip on the top left corner, some roughness on each corner of the center area of the case and roughness on the right side of the base. Original porcelain dial is near perfect and hands are original. The Baltimore jeweler who retailed this clock appears to be Samuel Child and Co.
