The Regent case design draws on the architecture of John Nash, who was commissioned by the Prince Regent in 1811 to develop a huge swathe of<br />

London, then known as Marylebone Park. The classical proportions of Nash’s work—Regent Street, Regent’s Park, St. James’s Park—can be seen<br />

in the sweeping curves and bold symmetry of the Regent Collection.<br />
