Application August 6,
Claims.
It is customary for florists on occasions which require floral decorations, such as weddings, receptions, etc., and also at funerals, to use tall woven vases or baskets technically known in the floral trade as beauty vases. These vases are useful in lending height to massed low decorations, in balancing a display for use in places Where no stand or table is possible, as in corners, etc. These vases or baskets are frequently five feet or more in height. The flowers and foliage are preferably arranged in these baskets by the florist at his shop, and the assembly is then transported to the place where it is to be displayed. Since these baskets contain a cup of water in which the stems are immersed and since the flowers are arranged to be displayed in an upright position, and must remain undisturbed, it is necessary to keep the vase in an upright position even during transportation.
If these baskets are transported in a sedan car or a truck, the height of the car body limits the height of the basket and its display, because the basket must be kept in an upright position dur ing transportation.
To overcome this difliculty or objection, I have invented a display basket which is made in two parts, so that it can be taken apart and its height reduced during transportation, and then can be assembled at the place of display, so that it will appear in its full height.
Therefore, one object of the invention is to make a tall, upright basket or vase in two parts which can be readily assembled and disconnected.
Another object of the invention is to provide a stand for the upper portion of the basket or vase, in which it will be held in an upright position during transportation.
Another object of the invention is to reduce the basket or vase in height during transportation and keep it in an upright position, and still permit it to be readily assembled when it is wanted for display.
These and other objects of the invention will be illustrated in the drawings, described in the speci fication, and pointed out in the claims at the end thereof.
In the drawings;
Figure 1 is an elevation of the basket or vase assembled.
Figure 2 is an outline drawing of the base alone.
Figure 3 is a sectional view of the socket of the base with the cup of the upper portion nested therein.
Figure 4 is a sectional view of the block and 1935, Serial No. 34,931
stem that are in the base of what is shown in Figures 1 and 2.
Figure 5 is a diagrammatic view of the upper section of the basket or vase supported by a separate base.
Figure 6 is an elevation of the separate or temporary base or stand shown in Figure 5-, which stand is used for the purpose of transportation.
Figure 7 is a top plan view of the base or stand shown in Figure 5.
Figure 8 is an elevation of a modified form of basket or vase.
Figure 9 is an outline drawing of the base contained in the bottom of Figure 8.
, Figure 10 is an elevation of the upper portion of Figure 9 with a cup resting thereon, which cup is contained in Figure 8.
Figure 11 is a detail View of a portion of the base shown in Figure 9.
Figure 12 is a side elevation of the upper portion of the vase supported by the temporary base or stand.
Figure 13 is a side elevation of the temporary base shown in Figure 12.
Figure 14 is a top plan view of the base shown in Figures 12 and 13.
In the drawings like reference numerals indicate like parts.
In the drawings reference numeral I indicates the display basket or vase divided on the horizontal line 11-11, as shown in Figure 1, into two' parts 2 and 3. Forming a portion. ofthe upper part 3 of the basket is provided a cup 4, which is adapted to hold water. Forming a portion of the lower part 2 of the basket is a sleeve 5 having a socket B therein, in which the cup 4 is adapted to rest. This sleeve 5 has a closed bottom 1 and is also adapted to hold water, so that the lower part of the basket can be used as a basket or vase independent of the upper part thereof. The bottom of this sleeve or cup 5 is adapted .to rest on a pin 8 standing upright in the block 9 that forms a portion of the lower part 2 of the basket. On this block 9, which is preferably made of wood; is provided a block I [I of concrete, or other heavy material, surrounded by a metal cap H by which it is attached to the block 9. This gives stability to the assembly which otherwise would be top heavy.
In Figures 6 and 7 I have shown a temporary base or support, preferably made of wire or wire framework. The wire is bent to form a base l2 and an upright socket l3 havinga ring of large diameter at the top and a ring of smaller diameter near the bottom. This socket is adapted to receive the cup 4, which forms a portion of the upper part 3 of the basket and is adapted to hold the upper part of the basket in an upright position.
It will be understood that the bottom of the cup 4 has a very small diameter or base on which the upper part of the basket will not rest in an upright position without additional support and this additional support other than the tall base shown in Figure 2 I provide as follows:
In Figure 5 I have shown the upper part 3 of the basket, supported by the temporary support shown in Figures 6 and '7.
It will be understood that the flowers and foliage and other decorations arranged in the top of the basket can easily make an assembly that is five or six feet tall, and the florist cannot put this assembly into his sedan car or truck in an upright position, but the upper part 3 of the basket, with the temporary wire support, will make an assembly that is only three and a half or four feet high, and this together with the lower part 2 of the basket, which is only about three feet high or less, can be put separately into the sedan car or the truck and transported with both in an upright position.
At the destination, the upper part 3 can be lifted out of the temporary support and placed on its regular base 2, and the assembly is then ready for display.
In Figure 8 I have shown a basket 20 which is divided into two parts; namely, the lower or base part 2| and the upper part 22, the divislon being made on the line y-y of Figure 8. Forming a portion of the upper part 22 of the basket is the cup 23, the lower part of which is attached to the sleeve 24. Forming a portion of the base or lower part of Figure 8 is the standard 25, having a wooden block 26 having a heavy block 21 attached thereto to counterbalance the weight of the upper portion. Up through the center of this base portion extends a peg or dowel pin 28, which fits into the sleeve 24 and by which the two portions of the basket are firmly connected together.
In Figure 13 I have shown in side elevation a temporary wire support 30, this support being shown in top plan view in Figure 14. This support has a ring of large diameter 3! at the top and a ring 32 of small diameter near the bottom, in which rings the basket or the cup 23 is adapted to engage and by which the upper portion of the base is held in upright position, with the top of it at a much lower elevation than when the two parts of the base are assembled as shown in Figure 8. i
For the purpose of transportation, the upper part 22 of the vase is removed from the base and is set in the wire frame 36, as shown in Figure 12, and at the destination where it is to be displayed it is removed from the temporary support 30 and placed on the base shown in Figures 8 and 9, where it appears at its full height again.
It will be understood that the lower part of the basket has a large base and can stand upright on that base with great stability, while the upper part of the basket has a base of very small diameter on which it will usually not stand in an upright position at all, but it will be easily or naturally upset therefrom.

A beauty vase having a top and bottom of large diameter and an intermediate zone of small diameter, said vase being made of an upper part and a lower part, one of said parts having a male member of small diameter and the other part having a female member adapted to receive the male member of the other part and by which the two parts are joined together on a central axis.
