Jewelry display and storage device

Jewelry display and storage device description/claims

This patent application is related to and claims priority from U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60/972,550 filed Sep. 14, 2007.

The present invention relates, in general, to jewelry storage devices and, more particularly, this invention relates to a rotatable jewelry storage and display device.

Prior to the conception and development of the present invention, enclosed jewelry boxes, as are generally well known in the prior art, have been used to store jewelry. Such jewelry boxes hide jewelry and keep jewelry items out of view such that such jewelry is not readily available for matching with outfits and other accessories. Small items of jewelry can get lost and chains may become tangled. Items within such jewelry box can be moved to a back or bottom of such jewelry box and become broken, dirty, tangled, and marred. Therefore, there is a need for a device which is easy to view and access and which will keep items tangle free, in good condition, and wherein such device is aesthetically pleasing to a user.

Specifically of interest to the present invention are the following: Ingersoll, U.S. Pat. No. 4,632,474 discloses a storage device for storing jewelry items. It has a base with a shaft extending upward therefrom with a plurality of spaced-apart shelves. A portion of the surface of each shelf is formed of a mesh which presents apertures to receive the posts of, for example, post-type pierced earrings. The shelves are surrounded by a cylindrical-like housing, a portion of which is rotatable about the other to provide for access. Dish-like recesses are formed in the base for storage of, for example, fasteners for post-type pierced earrings. The top shelf has spaced-apart posts along its perimeter from which articles such as necklaces may be suspended. The top shelf also has slots formed therein to receive articles such as the base or finger portion of rings.

Kane, et al, U.S. Design Pat. No. D350864 discloses an ornamental design for a jewelry display fixture for resting upon a display counter.

Thompson, U.S. Pat. No. 1,393,050 discloses a rotatable display apparatus. Such display apparatus is within a glass container and is designed for housing items for sale.

Bradley, U.S. Pat. No. 641,671, discloses a revolving showcase including a stationary base for sitting on a counter. Such display case is apparently for housing and displaying items for sale.

Hennings, U.S. Design Pat. No. D108,235, discloses the ornamental design for a display stand.

The present invention provides a jewelry display and storage device. Such jewelry display and storage device includes a base member for supporting such jewelry display and storage device. Such base member is manufactured from a first predetermined material and has a first predetermined size and a first predetermined shape. A first jewelry support member is rotatably disposed on such base member at a predetermined location thereon. Such first jewelry support member is manufactured from a second predetermined material and has a second predetermined size and a second predetermined shape. A second jewelry support member is disposed at a first end thereof on such first jewelry support member. Such second jewelry support member is manufactured from a third predetermined material and has a third predetermined size and a third predetermined shape.

It is, therefore, one of the primary objects of the present invention to provide a jewelry storage device which includes a rotatable portion on which necklaces, bracelets, pins and other jewelry and accessories may be stored and displayed and at least one saucer type portion for storing and displaying rings, bracelets, watches, earrings, toe rings, belly button rings, and the like.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a unique jewelry storage device which includes a center tower having hooks disposed thereon which may be used to hang necklaces thereon.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a jewelry display and storage unit which has at least one portion which spins to allow a user to easily view and access an item of jewelry to wear.

Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a jewelry display and storage device which displays and stores jewelry in an organized and neat manner.

An additional object of the present invention is to provide a jewelry display and storage device which provides easy access to items of jewelry stored thereon and which includes a cover member for covering such jewelry display and storage device as desired by a user.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a jewelry carousel creating a rotatable jewelry storage and display device.

In addition to the various objects and advantages of the present invention described with some degree of specificity above it should be obvious that additional objects and advantages of the present invention will become more readily apparent to those persons who are skilled in the relevant art from the following more detailed description of the invention, particularly, when such description is taken in conjunction with the attached drawing figures and with the appended claims.
