certain new and useful Improvements "inRecepta/cle :Holders, of which e following is a specification, res erence being had therein to theaccoinpanying drawing. This invention relates to receptacle lltlld GIS, and the invention has for its object to providea novel recepta l0 ;cle holder that can be suspended from a nail or book or supported upon a ledge: p r t My invention aims to provide a receptacle holder particularly dcsignedfor flower pots, the holder-being constructed wherebydt rnay be used in connection with a. window frame; and s wung to anydesired position, whereby a flower pot can be exposed to the sun light or swung awayfr'orn the window frame to prevent cold air entering the vvindow :irorn injuring a plant growing in a pothcld by my .irnproved holder; In this connection my irnproved holder while desig nedfor flower can b e readily used lor supporting vases, 3

jars, and for such purposes itis designed to support a flower pot or vase avv indow; where the ledge or sill oi the window is nq'tofsuflicient width to accommodate flower pots. To this'end, lily improved holder is constructed of ligh t and durable metaland provided with a frame for embracing the receptacle, and with a drip basin for receiving water that may drip irornthe bottom of a flower pot. In connection with the holder I can use'a novel bracket iort support'ing the holder upon 7 a window irame wherehyithe holder can he swung outside of theiwindow or a considerable distance upon the inside oi the window: although the bracket is not necessary when it is desired tosnpportthe holder upon A a t The detail construct en eringfghwfm invention" .will be hereinafter moreifullydescribed and then' spc cifically pointed o ut 'inthe .appended clain s and referring to the drawing forming part of this specification 40 like numerals 0i reference" d esignate corresponding parts throughout the "several views, in which z- Figure l is a perspective view impi'oved recepholder as suspended fro a wall or similar-support,"

Fig. 3 is a perspectiveview oi theholdci" suppoi-td lrnplnved holder of "and durable" W Jinga p0rtion 1 which is" stamped to provide a countersunk portkml serving functionally as a drip basinl: body portion 1 is which is bent upwardly to'prowlde a standard "1. The

The brace arms 8 are connected at their lower ends in the bascforbody portion 1, and atthcir upper ends age-suitably connected to "the circular tunnel), by eoiling tho upper ends of said 'bracc arms around the circular frame, as (:loaily soon in Fig. 3. I v

in Fig. 1 ol thedravvings, 1lmvoillustrated a novel bracket 12 as being \1sed-td support/my improved holder, said bracket having pivoted arms 14 and 15, the latter being provided with a hookdo'adaptod to pass through'tho opening 5 oithe standard land support the holder in a horizontal position'. Asvillustrated in dotted lines ol Fig; 1'; the holder 'can beswung ouside' oi the window'or swung away irom the window whereby flowers supported within the holder can be exposed to the sunlight and-in the night swung away from the window to prevent the ilowcrst from:-being chilled or otherwise injured by cold air Thehncket not only dispenses with'tho handling of ariluy er pot, in orderto protect thetfiowjcr growingrthereingibutpermit's' oi a flower pot:being positionedin front of awindow that-could not otherwise supporta Vflo'wcr pot-ii the bracket were not used. l

V p, v -"From the iorogoixig'*descriptioifl, it will bc observed hat the holderf'cah be used in "numerous; waysand in numerous placesifor supporting flower potsiand while V M H p I V I have herein illustrated-tho holder asprovidcdvvith provided with'an outwardly extending tongue 3,1

adrip basin, it is obvious that this basin can-he readily dispensed with especially where the holder is simply used for vases and jardinieres. v

I do not care to confine myself to the size, properout departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended elaims.

What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:

1. In 11. receptacle holder, the combination wlth a bracket having pivoted arms, one of said arms havinga hook, of a. holder consisting of a body portion haying a. countersunkportion, a standard carried by said body portion and having an opening formed therein adapted to receive said hook, said body portion having an opening formed therein, a wire lmsket carried by said bodyportion and standard and consisting of side arrns and a circular frame.
