"Tea Caddy" is listed in the r eference source as a known item produced by E.C. Purdie. This quality caddy was made by the famous & short-lived London silversmith Edwin Charles Purdie. Clearly they were not trying to be unscrupulous with the Lion Passant (Sterling) mark due to the blatant SILVER ON COPPER mark directly beneath it.
