- 1. Field of the invention
- This invention relates to the decoration of stemware by the attachment of a stem pops, a removable piece that fastens around the stem of stemware.
- 2. Background of the Invention
- The stem pops is designed to add decoration to stemware without interfering with the utility of the stemware to which it is attached. The stem pops attaches around the stem of stemware in such a fashion so as to allow the user of the stemware to continue to hold the stemware by its stem without fear the stem of the stemware would slip out of the stem pops.
- An attempt has been made to address decorative attachments to stemware.
- In U.S. Pat. D505,588 Wax discloses a flat wine stem id ring that attaches around the stem of a wine glass that appears to cover the base of the glass, whereas the present disclosure reveals a stem pops that wraps around the length of the stem of the stemware.
- A stem pops designed to attach along the length of a stem of stemware to add decoration. The stem pops is made from a formed material capable of retaining its original shape after being attached around the stem of the stemware, such that the formed material can be opened to allow the stem of the stem of the stemware to be inserted into the stem pops, thereafter, the stem pops closes around the stem of the stemware, back to its original shape. Later, the stem pops can be re-opened and removed from the stem of the stemware. The preferred embodiments of the stem pops include hexagonally a shaped stem pops, a square shaped stem pops, and a round shaped stem pops, although other shapes are possible.
