Hi Sabrina,

Thank you for calling upon Mearto to assist in evaluating your clock. I need to ask you for a favor, I think that I could be more precise in my evaluation if you could open the back of your super clock and upload an image of the back of the movement.

Thank you and I look forward to assisting you.

Sincerely,

Erin-Marie

Dear Sabrina,

Fabulous Spanish gilded clock on an onyx base. The gilded case with enamel numbers was made by Rocalba. This company was located in Chirivella​ (aka Xirivella), a municipality in the Valencian Community in Spain. It's an unusual clock to see in the US, although they aren't especially common in the market overall. Yours is easily the most spectacular of the examples that I have found in my research.
Assuming it is in working condition and was offered at an auction with global, online bidding you could expect to receive between $200 and $300USD, perhaps a little more, in general these clocks sell in the $150USD range.

Thank you for your submission.

Erin-Marie
