He does however comment on the odd style of some of the Waterford pieces (W-24H and W16 footnotes), which would certainly describe the bulging eyes and ropey hair on the current specimen. As for the lis by the neck, these too seem to be quite unknown elsewhere in the Edward IV series’. The style of this specimen, from different dies, is not quite so striking but all the other points remain valid

A George V heavy silver wine taster quaich by Robert Stewart of Glasgow, London 1915, diameter 13cm, weight 7.5 toz.Provenance: From the Estates of June Barrington Ward & Maggie Cameron Frazer‘Two Remarkable Ladies’June Barrington-Ward 1922-2002& Maggie Cameron Frazer 1923-2021 For several decades, two remarkable ladies lived contentedly in the remote farmhouse near Lanreath in Cornwall that they had restored and shared since the 1970s.June Barrington-Ward was a sculptor. She trained at Chelsea School of Art and exhibited widely during the 1960s & 70s. Her work featured in group shows in prestigious galleries and locations like the Royal Academy alongside artists such as Denis Mitchell, John Milne & Kim Lim. June was the daughter of Lancelot Barrington-Ward KCVO, a royal surgeon to King George VI and his family. He also played rugby for England. Her grandfather was the vicar of Duloe in Cornwall. Although her work was applauded by contemporary critics, she never pursued recognition. In the words of a family member “she didn’t seek fame and I believe she was simply happy to be left alone to make things.”Maggie Cameron Frazer was an academic who specialised in antique glass, a subject on which she wrote extensively and lectured at the Victoria & Albert Museum. There are fine pieces in our March Antiques sale that were part of her treasured collection.They met during the Second World War. June, in the WRNS, drove ambulances in London and Maggie worked at Bletchley Park. For many years they shared a large property in Chiswick with a studio, until making the move to Cornwall.Maggie bought their magical house in North Cornwall from the Carlyon Family in 1978. After renovating their home, they settled happily into retirement, Maggie astutely playing the stock market and June continuing to create sculpture. June died in 2002 and Maggie followed her last year.The home they left, and their wonderful collection of art and antiques, stand as a celebration and testament to their happy life together.Condition report: There is tarnishing throughout. There are some dark spots in the interior which we think is pitted marks the metal and with light polishing they can't be removed. Light scratches throughout. Please see images.

Chalkie Davies (Welsh, born 1955)John Lydon, The Lydon King, 1980, printed laterblack and white archival print, signed and numbered HC 1/5 by the photographer in blue ink to the lower border 81 x 87.5cm (32 x 34 1/2in)Footnotes:'I call this 'The Lydon King'. The picture was done because Public Image had formed and their first record was coming out. John couldn't have been more bored, and was being very uncooperative. This is me pretty much giving up. I'd said 'you don't want to be here, and neither do I. Let's go home'. So I'd unplugged the strobe light, and he was just about to get off the stool. The only lighting was a small bulb that we used in the strobe to see by, and not light by, it's got moodiness though, and that totally reflected the way he was that day'.- Chalkie DaviesThis lot is subject to the following lot symbols: ARAR Goods subject to Artists Resale Right Additional Premium.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
