An adjustable holder including a base to support a stack of articles, such as folded napkins. Retaining members are connected to the sides of the base and define a compartment within which the articles are retained. Each retaining member includes a horizontal section which is disposed beneath the base and a vertical section. A locking member is mounted on the undersurface of the base and is engaged with the horizontal section of each retaining member. Each locking member is composed of a pair of diverging arms having aligned openings to receive the horizontal section of the retaining member. By flexing the diverging arms toward a generally parallel condition, the horizontal section of the retaining member can be freely moved toward and away from the base to accommodate articles of different sizes and by releasing the diverging arms, the horizontal section will be firmly gripped to maintain the retaining member in a given position.

An adjustable holder for holding articles, comprising a base having an upper surface to support a stack of articles, a plurality of retaining members connected to the sides of the base and extending upwardly from the base, each retaining member including a first section disposed beneath the base and a second section connected to the first section and extending upwardly beyond the base, oppositely disposed retaining members include connecting sections connecting the respective first section and the second section, said connecting sections extending downwardly from the first sections to a level below the base to provide a support for the holder, a locking member connected to the base and engaged with the first section of each retaining member to lock the first section against movement with respect to the base, each locking member including a pair of spaced arms disposed in a non-parallel condition and having aligned openings to receive the respective first section, flexing of said arms toward a parallel condition enabling the respective first section to be freely moved within the aligned openings to extend and retract the retaining member relative to the base, release of the arms causing the arms to return to said non-parallel condition to firmly grip the respective first section and lock the first section against movement relative to the base.
