Abstract

See full text

A retainment device may have a retainment vessel with a first section and a second section that, when joined, form a hollow retainment device. The retainment device may provide a fluid seal allowing both liquid and/or solid objects to be retained within the interior. The retainment device is preferably transparent and enables one to attach it to various items such as a bottle stopper or a keychain. Items may be stored within the retainment vessel and viewed therethrough. A tag mechanism may allow a description of the object contained within the retainment mechanism to be identified.
