SERVICE GLASS Filed July 31, 1934 INVENTOR ABRAHAM COOPER STE N ATTORNEY Patented Jan. 8,1935

, UNITED STA ES PATENT OFFICE if a The present invention relates to tableware, and

particularly to receptacles'which are employed for serving sherbet, wine, etc., the lower portion of the receptacle comprising a thin metallic stand, ,5 and the upper portion a glass bowl which is adapt edto be mounted upon the stand in a removable manner. v r r Heretofore, the metal stand has taken several ,forms, theusual-f orm being that of a receptacle, comprised of two hollow cones reyersely arranged i and fastened together by soldering to constitute an upwardly extending cup-like part to receive theglass bowl, and a downwardly extendingfiared base portions The upper cone has hitherto been provided at itslower part with an integrally formed screw threaded, cylinder having openings at both ends, whereby when the coneeshaped parts of the stand are attached with theirreduced ed stem projectingfrom the glass boWL; This stem is moulded upon the glass bowl duringits process of manufacture, and screws into the threaded cylinder, projecting slightly beyond the lowermost opening.

It has been found that in the use of twopart receptacles such as hereinabove: described, the

fingers of the user are frequently out either on the bottom opening of the thin metallic screw threaded cylinder, or else on the sharpedges of the lowermost portion of the glass stem projecting through the cylinder i One of the objects of the present invention is to overcome this difliculty, and this is accom- I plished by providing a two-part receptacle which has the cylindrical threaded part completely enclosed at itslowermost end so asto form a smooth and continuous surface. a i e 1 l A feature of the invention constitutes the thimble-like threaded cylinder whichcomprises a separate part of the receptacle and which is individually fastened in permanent ymanner in the process of manufacture to'the downwardly extending cone base portion, The upper cone is subsequently fastened to the reduced endflof the lower cone andthe open upper end of the thimb-le-like cylinder.
