I bought this teacaddy as maked by Anthony de Rooy in 1734, Amsterdam. Correct? :)

The reason why I bought it was the enormous heraldic wapen on the caddy. Are there also experts in this group for heraldic wapens? I tried google for wapens with 6 fishes, but I do not get any hits... It would be nice if we relate this silver theacaddy to a family
