Stackable, modular and decorative bowl assembly

Abstract

A stackable, modular, and decorative bowl assembly. More particularly, the present invention is a tower or vertical pole which houses cylindrical containers of various sizes, shapes, and colors. In one mode of production, the bowl assembly is a floor-to-ceiling arrangement, while in an alternate embodiment, the bowl assembly is a countertop-to-ceiling arrangement. In either instance, several plastic bowls are attached to the vertical support, with the pole running through the center of the bowls, in the preferred mode. As such, each bowl may hold numerous small items to conserve space, or may hold decorative items such as plants and flowers. In total, the assembly forms an aesthetically pleasing and space-conscious display for many areas, including the home or office.
