BACKGROUND

1. Field of the Invention

This invention relates to containers and jewelry, specifically an improvement to allow the jewelry to contain scrolls.

2. Description of Prior Art

The use of containers and jewelry has been around for thousands of years. Jewelry has had many designs and has been made of many different materials from bone to metal and decorated with everything from feathers to diamonds.

Many times jewelry is also functional in nature. Jewelry has been used to hold keepsakes such as pictures or lockets of hairs to even poison.

Scrolls have been used to record everything from history to business records to recipes. More recently, they have been used to record people's utmost private thoughts and desires. These are usually very personal thoughts that are important to the person.

The current art, a jewelry design that exists to hold scrolls, is a cylinder shape piece of jewelry with a scroll tucked inside. The lid of the piece unscrews or twists. The scroll had to be removed manually which could be a difficult process. Tweezers or some other type of Instrument had to be used to retrieve the scroll from the inside of the cylinder. The piece of jewelry was too small to get fingers or fingernails inside of the cylinder to grasp the scroll to pull it out manually.

There is still room for improvement within the art.
