A K6 telephone box, made at the Lion Foundry Co Ltd Kirkintilloch, stamped, dated 1953-1968, 250cm tall Designed in 1935 by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott the K6 was designed to commemorate the Silver Jubilee of George V, going into production in 1936. Before its introduction there were 19,000 phone boxes in the UK and by the time it was replaced by the K8 in 1968 there were around 70,000 making the K6 the most prolific kiosk in the UK. The Lion Foundry opened in 1880, in the town of Kirkintilloch, 10 miles north of central Glasgow. During the early years of the company they were renounced for the construction of band stands, public transport shelters and theatre canopies, such as the North Promenade Tram shelter in Blackpool, Olympia theatre in Liverpool and the Leeds County Arcade. The post war years saw a change of direction for the company, moving away from the ornate work they were know for to more utilitarian product such as balance weights, heavy duty frames and the much loved K6 phone box for the GPO. In 1966 they won the contract to make the new K8 kiosks and shared the load with other foundries, later becoming the sole foundry for the K8, becoming dependant on the K8 for its business. Once fresh orders dried up from the GPO the foundry closed its doors at the end of 1984.

A George V silver cigarette box, engraved monogram to the hinged lid, London 1913, width 14.5cm, gross weight 470g.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.
