Jewelry tree

Abstract

A jewelry tree comprising a base having a concave top surface, a tube having a first tube end, a second tube end, and at least two branches extending therefrom, and a rod having a first rod end, a second rod end, and at least two branches extending therefrom, where the first tube end is adapted to be secured to the base, the tube is arranged to extend upwardly from the base, the rod is adapted to slidably and telescopingly engage the tube, the rod is rotatable within the tube, and each branch is adapted to hold at least one item above the base.

1 . A jewelry tree comprising:
 a base having a concave top surface;   a tube having a first tube end, a second tube end, and at least two branches extending therefrom; and,   a rod having a first rod end, a second rod end, and at least two branches extending therefrom, wherein said first tube end is adapted to be secured to said base, said tube is arranged to extend upwardly from said base, said rod is adapted to slidably and telescopingly engage said tube, such that the height of the jewelry tree is adjustable, said rod is rotatable within said tube, and each branch is adapted to hold at least one item above said base.   
     
     
         2 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said tube further comprises a keyhole and a key setscrew, wherein said key setscrew passes through said keyhole and is operatively arranged to hold said rod in a set position. 
     
     
         3 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 2 , wherein said key setscrew is threadably secured to said keyhole. 
     
     
         4 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said key setscrew comprises a key rod, a threaded end and a looped end, wherein said looped end comprises at least one open key loop. 
     
     
         5 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said tube and said rod are cylindrical. 
     
     
         6 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said tube and said rod include a plurality of branches extending therefrom, wherein each branch of the plurality of branches is adapted to hold at least one item above said base. 
     
     
         7 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 6 , wherein each branch of said plurality of branches is substantially parallel to said base. 
     
     
         8 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 7 , wherein each branch of said plurality of branches curves outwardly and upwardly to form a first open loop. 
     
     
         9 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 8 , wherein each branch of said plurality of branches further comprises a second open loop. 
     
     
         10 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said second rod end curves to form a closed top loop. 
     
     
         11 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 6 , wherein each branch of said plurality of branches extends radially outwardly from said rod or said tube. 
     
     
         12 . The jewelry tree of  claim 11 , wherein said rod comprises four branches and said tube comprises four branches. 
     
     
         13 . The jewelry tree of  claim 12 , wherein said branches are equally spaced apart at angle, θ. 
     
     
         14 . The jewelry tree of  claim 13 , wherein said angle, θ, is approximately 90 degrees. 
     
     
         15 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said tube has a height, H 1 , and said rod has a height, H 2 , and H 1  and H 2  are equal. 
     
     
         16 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said rod and said tube are substantially perpendicular to said base. 
     
     
         17 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said jewelry tree is made of metal. 
     
     
         18 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said jewelry tree is made of plastic. 
     
     
         19 . The jewelry tree recited in  claim 1 , wherein said jewelry tree is made of wood.
