Morphology
The phrase 'Regency era' is directly compositional: 'Regency' names the specific historical period and 'era' denotes a span of time, so the meaning 'the era of the Regency' is derivable from the constituents. This is a standard noun + noun/labeling pattern (not idiomatic) and is cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both words would understand it.
Etymology
The term Regency era comes from a time when the future king, called the Prince Regent, ruled because his father was too unwell to do so. From 1811 to 1820 his rule gave the period its name, so today Regency era refers to those years and the fashion, buildings and social life of that time.
