Abstract: A case for fragile articles comprises a rigid container including a generally rectangular bottom, a peripheral upstanding wall, including side walls and end walls, and a lid, defining a main compartment. The interior of the main compartment is covered with resilient cushioning means. First elongated partition means divide the main compartment into first compartments. The first partition means includes a first support member which is rigid and generally planar and extends between opposed side walls. The length of the first support member is such that it extends into and compresses a portion of the cushion means covering the side walls. Cushion means cover the top edge and planar surfaces of the first partition. Second elongated partition means divides the first compartment into second compartments. The second partition includes a second support member which is rigid and generally planar and extends between an end wall and the first partition.
