ABSTRACT:
A receptacle for articles is provided for attachment by screws, clamps, rivets, or the like, to the underside of any chair having space available beneath its seat. In one preferred form, the receptacle is comprised of a fabric sheet having an elastic border along at least one of its edges. The fabric sheet, shaped to match the configuration of the seat underside, is inconspicuously mounted thereto such that said sheet is substantially flush with the seat underside. In use, access to the receptacle is gained by pulling down the elastic border, which preferably is provided by stitching a hem along one or more edges of the fabric and disposing an elastic cord therein. When the seat underside includes projecting nails, staples or the like, which may injure one reaching into the receptacle, an underseat cover is employed as a protective shield between the receptacle and the seat. In another preferred embodiment, the underseat receptacle is constructed of a rigid material, such as molded plastic, configured as a relatively concave storage shelf having apertured flanges along its top edge. The flanges are bolted or riveted to the underside of a chair. In both embodiments, the underseat receptacle can be attached beneath a seat such that only one occupying the seat will have access to articles stored within the receptacle.
