  • Patent number: 5738228
    Abstract: An attractive and portable object holder which can grip, hold, and contain objects, e.g., pens, pencils, tools, and artists' paint brushes, and the like, is disclosed. The rectilinear holder, along with its interior gripping bristles, is injection molded with polyethylene, polypropylene, or other similarly resilient plastic in a single mold. The flexible bristles act to grip and hold objects that are inserted between the bristles. The bristle qualities are chosen to be resilient and flexible to repeatedly grip, hold, and contain quantities of inserted objects without the bulky design or the ineffective grip-and-hold associated with the prior-art devices.
