A dispenser which comprises (a) a first housing portion which is formed from at least one wall, the first housing portion wall defining a first housing portion interior and a first housing portion opening which exposes the interior of the first housing portion interior to the exterior of the first housing portion; and (b) a second housing portion formed from at least one wall; wherein one side of the second housing portion wall is configured to receive at least one end of a shaft upon which dispensable material may be placed, the shaft when present being disposed relative to the second housing portion wall so that the longitudinal axis of the shaft is offset from a plane occupied by at least a portion of the second housing portion, and wherein the second housing portion is rotatably attached to the first housing portion so that the second housing portion may be rotated about a second housing portion rotational axis, whereby upon rotation of the second housing portion the shaft when present may be revealed and accessed and upon further rotation of the second housing portion the shaft when present may be disposed within the first housing portion interior and concealed from view through the first housing portion opening. This and other novel devices are disclosed which enable dispensation of rolled material, e.g., paper towels, toilet paper, plastic wrap, tin foil, wire, etc. while also enabling the user to conceal the roll of material from view when not in use.
