A utensil holder which includes three separate annular sections of different diameters, can be assembled in interlocking superposed relationship as a one-tier holder, a two-tier holder or a three-tier holder. For shipping purposes, all three sections nest one within the other to provide an assembly which is the size of the largest section.

A multi-sectional utensil holder interchangeable between a stored position and an operative position, comprising: a base section having concentric, annular, radially spaced inner and outer walls of predetermined diameters, with circumferentially spaced, radially extending partitions therebetween to provide a plurality of storage compartments, said walls having top and bottom edges, the top edges of the inner and outer walls being generally in a co-planer relationship; an intermediate section having concentric, annular, radially spaced outer and inner walls of predetermined diameters, with circumferentially spaced, radially extending partitions therebetween to provide a plurality of storage compartments, said walls having upper and lower edges, the upper edges of the inner and outer walls being generally in a co-planer relationship; the vertical dimension of the outer wall of the intermediate section being less than the vertical dimension of the inner wall of the base section, and the diameter of the outer wall of the intermediate section being less than the diameter of the inner wall of the base section, whereby the intermediate section in the inverted position is nested within the confines of the inner wall of the base section for shipping purposes; and interengageable, releasable coupling means adjacent the lower edge of the outer wall of the intermediate section and adjacent the top edge of the inner wall of the base section, whereby the intermediate section is positioned on and releasably coupled with the base section to provide a two-tier utensil holder.
