Unusual Shaped Kylin Tea Caddy

This is a great tea caddy / jar made in England around 1800. I am not sure who is the exact maker but it might be Chamberlain's Worcester as the design is closest to theirs but the shape of the caddy is highly unusual and I ahve not seen that before. The piece is decorated with the famous Dragon in Compartments or Kylin pattern in superb colors and with lots of detail! Nice to have the original lid with it as well! Maybe someone out there has seen this shape before and can help. The piece is sort of triangular in shape but has six sides three narrow ones and three normal sized ones. The tea jar is in perfect condition with some minor wear to the gilding but it displays perfectly! The piece is unmarked underneath so that is of no help. The jar with lid is 5.25 inches tall and 3.5 inches wide. Please email me for more information or other pictures.
