The red telephone box has become a British icon. It was designed by Giles Gilbert Scott for a competition in 1924 to find a suitable standard pattern of kiosk that might be introduced throughout Britain. This design is known as the K2 pattern. It was later superceded by other versions the most common of which was the K6 or Jubilee kiosk which was introduced in 1936 and became Britain's standard kiosk for over 30 years. Over that time over 60,000 were erected. Some of the early boxes can still be found in remote locations. This is one of a series of fine Architectural models made by world-renowned artist, Timothy Richards. These models are made with plaster and other traditional construction materials including lead, acid-etched brass, glass, copper and gold leaf. Each model is individually hand-made in Timothy's studio and workshop in Bath in England.
