  • Patent number: 11751662
    Abstract: A palette, such as for providing choices of a makeup includes a base enclosing a drawer. The drawer includes pans within pan compartments. The base has a drawer compartment from which the drawer can slide in and out. The pan is retained in the pan compartment by application of a force that presses on the bottom of the pan, and the top of the pan presses against a frame or lid. The pan is removable from the pan compartment when the drawer is slid out from the base to expose an opening in the pan compartment through which the pan is removed. When the drawer includes a fixed frame on top, the pan can slide out from the front of the drawer, and when the drawer includes lids on top, the pan can be removed from the top as well as the front of the drawer.
