Storage and display case

Abstract

A display and storage case is disclosed. The display and storage case can include a structure having a front, back, top, bottom, left and right sides. Formed into a front side of the structure are a number of cavities of varying size and shape. The display and storage case may be used to store or display bottles or other products in a horizontal or vertical manner.

1 . A storage and display case, comprising:
 a structure having a top side, a bottom side, a back side, a front side, a left side and a right side;   a plurality of cavities disposed on the front side, the plurality of cavities comprising:   a plurality of first cavities having a depth and a width; and   a plurality of second cavities having a depth and a width,
 wherein the plurality of first cavities and the plurality of second cavities disposed on the front side form at least one horizontal row of cavities. 
   
   
   
       2 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of second cavities have a width that is greater than the width of the plurality of first cavities. 
   
   
       3 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of second cavities have a depth that is greater than the depth of the plurality of first cavities. 
   
   
       4 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one horizontal row of cavities comprises a series of alternating first cavities and second cavities. 
   
   
       5 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a step fixed to a bottom surface of at least one of the plurality of first cavities and the plurality of second cavities.   
   
   
       6 . The storage and display case of  claim 5 , wherein the step fixed to the bottom surface of the at least one of the first plurality of cavities and at least one of the second plurality of cavities is made of a different material than the structure. 
   
   
       7 . The storage and display case of  claim 6 , wherein the step is made of wood. 
   
   
       8 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , wherein the structure is made of a plastic coated foam material. 
   
   
       9 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of cavities have a bottom surface which is substantially planar throughout the entire surface. 
   
   
       10 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of cavities are positioned vertically within the front side. 
   
   
       11 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , wherein the plurality of first cavities and the plurality of second cavities each have three substantially planar sides and one substantially concave side. 
   
   
       12 . The storage and display case of claim, further comprising:
 a strip of material positioned flush with the back side of the structure and made of a different material than the structure.   
   
   
       13 . The storage and display case of  claim 12 , wherein the strip of material is made of wood. 
   
   
       14 . The storage and display case of  claim 13 , wherein the strip of material runs horizontal from the left side to the right side. 
   
   
       15 . The storage and display case of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 a strip of material positioned flush with the top side of the structure and made of a different material than the structure.   
   
   
       16 . The storage and display case of  claim 15 , wherein the strip of material is made of wood. 
   
   
       17 . The storage and display case of  claim 16 , wherein the strip of material runs horizontal from the left side to the right side. 
   
   
       18 . A method of displaying and storing bottles, comprising:
 forming a structure out of a solid material;   forming a plurality of first cavities each having a first set of dimensions in at least one horizontal row in a face of the structure;   forming a plurality of second cavities each having a second set of dimensions in the at least one horizontal row between the plurality of first cavities in the face of the structure;   disposing one of a product in each of the plurality of first cavities; and   disposing one or more of a product in each of the plurality of second cavities.   
   
   
       19 . The method of displaying and storing bottles of  claim 18 , wherein the set of dimensions for the plurality of second cavities is greater than the set of dimensions for the plurality of first cavities. 
   
   
       20 . The method of displaying and storing bottles of  claim 19 , wherein the product disposed in the first plurality of cavities and the second plurality of cavities is a wine bottle.
