ABSTRACT:
A display unit for the removable attachment of holder units. The holder units retain various small objects which are associated as being used by people. Specifically disclosed are keys and jewelry items worn by both men and women. Jewelry items are normally visually inspected by the user during a selection process. During the selection process comparisons are made to select a grouping of items. Easy movement of the different items under consideration on the display unit assists the user in making a final selection. A dual member fastener, as exampled by hook and loop fasteners, is ideally suited as the connection means. One member is secured to the display unit with its respective attachment side exposed. The second member forms the holder units with its respective attachment side exposed on the back side. Utilization of the fasteners, for jewelry items, or key rings for keys, is provided for attachment of the items to the holder units. Containment of the items while detached from the display unit, and still attached to the holder units, is provided. This containment reduces the chance of loss and enhances the chance of easy recovery of the relatively small items while being transported. Flexibility of the holder units permits transport, such as in a purse, without damaging the transport device. The flexibility of the holder units provide for ease of attachment and detachment while providing for conforming around penetrating fasteners.
