No. 733,477 Claims priority, application Japan, May 30, 1967, 42/ 45,686 Int. Cl. A47f 7/00; A47g 23/00 U.S. Cl. 211-60 1 Claim ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIGURE 1 shows a plan of a spoon-holder according to the present utility model.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The spoon-holder of this contrivance has a flat dish 1, the periphery of the inside of said dish being provided Fice With several sucton cups 2; colored pieces 3 of flower and other patterns being planted at the center of said dish; and the bottom plate 4 of said dish being provided With a stepped groove 6, into Which the tips of spoons 5 are positioned with their bowls arranged around the planted colored pieces 3.
Such being the composition of this contrivance, when the spoons 5 are sucked in upright position by the sucton cups 2 as shown in FIG. 3, the plated surfaces of bowls reflect the colored pieces 3 and the whole thing looks very beautiful. Moreover, since the spoon tips engage the stepped groove 6 formed at the bottom plate 4 of the holder, a perfect upright positon can be maintained, making the display on the table look pretty and vastly enhancing its value.
What is claimed is:
1. A spoon holder comprising a dish 1 with a bottom plate 4; the periphery of the inside of the dish being provided with a plurality of sucton cups 2 for holding the spoons in an upright position; means at the center of the dish for holding colored pieces of flowers 3 and other patterns; said bottom plate having a stepped groove 6 into which the tips of spoons 5 fit whereby the spoons are positioned so that their bowls are arranged around the colored pieces 3.
