Trinket set powder bowl in green glass with metal lid - Regent of London

(1/7) > >>

Anne:
The other pot with the lid insert is this one... different pot and lid, but style of lid matches the one Dirk found on eBay, and the glass on the eBay one matches the glass in my original pot at the top of this topic.  This one is also an unknown and is a darker green than the first one.

Jayne:
The second one certainly looks like a "Regent of London" pot, very nice too!

Anne:
Jayne, please tell me about Regent of London. I can't bring them to mind...

I think the style of lid decoration on the second one is what's called Guilloché?

Jayne:
Anne, I don't know much apart from an Ebay search brings up loads of vanity items, sets including pots like your last one, and hairbrush/mirror type sets, often beautifully boxed and vintage, presumably made in London, seemingly very nicely made, and of varying qualities and prices.

Often the green pots with the guilloche (enamelling? which can be real or fake?) or tapestry lids or even pink guilloche are not listed as Regent of London but I've seen some that are, and I assume some sellers don't know what they are selling. There are also sets with candlesticks and trays, made of a metal frame with maybe a glass insert over the tapestry or material? Guilloche jar search bring up pots also.
