ABSTRACT:
An optically transparent container includes a base, a sidewall extending from the base and having indicia formed as recesses. The recesses are emergent upon an exterior surface of the container and the base includes a sealed compartment. A lighting mechanism housed within the compartment, includes a battery for activating at least one diode disposed beneath a lowermost extremity of the sidewall. A switch mechanism positioned within the compartment includes a touch-sensitive switch for energizing the at least one diode for a predetermined time period when the container is touched. The at least one diode is de-energized when one of the predetermined time period expires and the container is touched subsequently. The at least one light-emitting diode is formed in an orientation which is other than parallel to a bottom surface of the container.
