ABSTRACT:
A bottle holder in the form of a flat planar support includes resiliently biased opposing jaws that capture the bottle cap in order to hold it in an inverted position. The jaws are resiliently biased with sufficient force to securely grip the cap. The stand is dimensioned such that when held in the inverted position, the bottle does not tip. Each jaw includes a V-shaped notch to provide dual-point clamping pressure on bottle caps of varying diameter. The jaws are biased toward a closed position by a resilient band which is fitted within a groove around the periphery of the holder. A stand for a plurality of holders includes a vertically-extended tower which is slightly larger than the aperture between the jaws in their closed position so that when stored on the stand about the tower, the holders grip the tower securely.
