20140069316 | STEMWARE, MUG, AND STEIN IDENTIFICATION HELIX - In a system for imparting visually identifiable distinctions between individual drinking vessels, an identification helix is used to impermanently attach to an elongate element of at least one of the drinking vessels. At least two identification helices are provided for engaging an elongate element of a drinking vessel such as a stem or handle. The system of identification helices comprises a first helical member of resilient flexible material having a pair of ends and adapted to engage the elongate element by wrapping the elongate element with a generally encircling geometry. A second helical member of resilient flexible material has, as well, a pair of ends and adapted to engage the elongate element by wrapping the elongate element with a generally encircling geometry. The second helical member is visually distinct from the first differing in one of a group of qualities consisting of handedness, color, color combinations, and attached charms. | 03-13-2014 |
