ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed toward a bottle handle that is separately formed and subsequently affixed to the neck of a bottle by threading, or snap fitting the handle onto the bottle neck, or by securing thereto during a blow mold operation of the bottle. The preferred handle includes a neck portion and a finger portion that comprise two generally perpendicularly oriented, substantially circular rings that are offset from one another in an approximately tangential relationship. Protuberances and concave finger indents on the finger portion enable a user's finger to provide extra support when handling a bottle affixed with the bottle handle.
