hmmm ………… pix of the salts lack contrast, and difficult to assess cutting/moulding etc. - I think the word 'style' says it all - more likely a C20 George - we could be back to the 1930's neo Georgian repro.
Genuine turned-over rims are typical of a late C18 early C19 Irish thing - think of all those salts, urns and salad bowls - don't know how they cut underneath the rims, but some were mould made. After bowl was removed from the mould, foot was added and the pontil rod then attached to foot so the rim could be turned-over. On cut examples perhaps none were actually cut under the rim??
On these salts, the decoration looks meagre/mean, and the foot doesn't look typical for the sort of Georgian that's being implied. Head on block and will suggest not possible to produce mould made pieces with that degree of turned-over rim - everted yes, but these salts are a long way from being simply everted.
I'm not aware of any 'Lord/Jacobean' designs that had turned over rims like these salts, so would suggest you don't return - there's always a temptation to embellish something we've lost and make it sound better than it actually is.
Of course, had your mystery item been the 'Lord' table lamp, then I'd have suggested you went back and bought it for me
Sorry none of this is any help.
