- a. a first, substantially hook-shaped portion adapted to fix the holder to the support,
- b. a second portion extending generally horizontally from the first portion,
- c. a third portion extending downwardly from the second portion, so that said third portion is spaced from the plane of the support, and
- d. a fourth portion attached to said third portion, directed horizontally back toward the plane of the support, and adapted to carry an inverted bottle so that a substantial part of the bottle is held in a volume of space defined by the second, third, and fourth portions of the holder, and by the plane of the wall, the frame being stamped from a single sheet of metal, the bottle being provided with a neck of reduced diameter and a cap, an aperture being provided in the fourth portion through which the neck extends, the diameter of the aperture being such that the reduced neck without the cap can pass through said aperture, but cannot pass through with the cap in place, the frame being constructed of opaque sheet material and thus obscuring from view a large portion of the bottle.
