Abstract: Method for producing an ice scupture employing the steps of forming rigid metallic mold halves from the objects, said mold halves having recesses which collectively define the object; yieldably joining said rigid mold halves together at discrete locations; filling said mold halves with a freezable liquid; chilling the assembly sufficient to freeze the freezable liquid; allowing the mold halves to become differentially displaced from one another as the freezable liquid expands; disassembling said mold halves from one another to remove the ice sculpture therefrom peeling away said rubber mold from sculpture. In another embodiment, the rubber mold is eliminated and replaced by a sealing gasket. Additives may be employed to add color and/or obtain clarity.

Abstract: A rolling display table having a surface with a shallow watertight recess for holding a bed of ice. The center of the recess has a transparent window water-tightly fitted therein. An enclosure beneath the window houses lamps for illuminating the window which may support an ice sculpture or the like to illuminate the ice sculpture to the greatest aesthetic advantage. The ice bed is placed on the shallow recess and about the ice sculpture, to serve as a bed for food stuffs which are maintained chilled such a fruit, pastries, desserts, seafood, and the like. The display surface is supported by decorative legs mounted between the display surface and a lower enclosure mounted upon casters to facilitate rolling movement of the display table.

Abstract: Apparatus for producing an ice sculpture comprising a compressible gasket arranged between a pair of mold halves which are yieldably joined by spring-loaded releasable locking toggle assemblies and spring loaded hinge assemblies respectively arranged along opposite sides of the mold halves to permit the formation of large ice sculptures.

Abstract: A child's knock-down chair capable of being assembled without the need for any conventional fasteners and comprised of two side parts and two cross pieces which, due to the unique design of the chair, act respectively as seat and back for a steady chair, and as a back and seat for a rocking chair. Disassembly of the knock-down chair is as simple and straightforward as assembly.
