According to one or more embodiments described herein, an apparatus may hold and retain glass articles during processing. The apparatus may comprise a base frame comprising a bottom support plate and a plurality of ware keepers positioned on the bottom support plate. Each ware keeper of the plurality of ware keepers may comprise a plurality of retention bodies formed from wire segments and defining a ware receiving volume therebetween. Each retention body may comprise one or more of a base connection stem, a seat segment, a body segment, a retention segment, and a lever segment. The seat segments of the retention bodies may form a ware seat positioned above and substantially parallel to the bottom support plate. According to another embodiment, an assembly may comprise a plurality of magazine apparatus.

The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the lever segments of opposing retention bodies extend away from one another. 3. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein a diameter of the ware receiving volume enclosed by the lower segment is greater than the diameter of the ware receiving volume enclosed by the body segment. 4. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the seat segment of each retention body is spaced apart from the bottom support plate. 5. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein each retention body is attached to an adjacent retention body with a connecting segment to form retention body couplets. 6. The apparatus of claim 5, wherein the connecting segment is a looped wire segment. 7. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein each ware keeper comprises four retention bodies. 8. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein each of the four retention bodies are attached to another retention body, such that each ware keeper comprises two retention body couplets. 9. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the two retention body couplets are linearly symmetric with one another. 10. The apparatus of claim 8, wherein the retention body couplets are positioned on opposite sides of the ware receiving volume. 11. The apparatus of claim 1, wherein the ware keeper moves to an open position when a downward force is applied to the retention bodies. 12. An assembly for holding and retaining glass articles, the assembly comprising a plurality of magazine apparatuses, each of the magazine apparatuses comprising: a base frame comprising a bottom support plate;a plurality of ware keepers positioned on the bottom support plate, wherein each ware keeper of the plurality of ware keepers comprises a plurality of retention bodies formed from wire segments and defining a ware receiving volume therebetween, wherein each retention body comprises: a base connection stem engaged with the bottom support plate;a seat segment contiguous with the base connection stem and positioned over and substantially parallel to the bottom support plate, wherein the seat segment of each retention body is spaced apart from the bottom support plate;a lower segment coupled to the seat segment;a body segment coupled to the lower segment and extending away from the bottom support plate, the lower segment positioned between the seat segment and the body segment;a retention segment coupled to the body segment; anda lever segment coupled to the retention segment, wherein the seat segments of the retention bodies form a ware seat positioned above and substantially parallel to the bottom support plate, the ware seat defining a bottom of the ware receiving volume and configured to support a glass article thereon such that a bottom section of the glass article rests directly on the ware seat. 13. The assembly of claim 12, wherein the lever segments of opposing retention bodies extend away from one another. 14. The assembly of claim 12, wherein a diameter of the ware receiving volume enclosed by the retention segment is less than a diameter of the ware receiving volume enclosed by the body segment. 15. The assembly of claim 12, wherein a diameter of the ware receiving volume enclosed by the lower segment is greater than the diameter of the ware receiving volume enclosed by the body segment. 16. The assembly of claim 12, wherein each retention body is attached to an adjacent retention body with a connecting segment to form retention body couplets. 17. The assembly of claim 12, wherein each ware keeper comprises four retention bodies. 18. An apparatus for holding and retaining glass articles during processing, the apparatus comprising: a base frame comprising a bottom support plate;a plurality of ware keepers positioned on the bottom support plate, wherein each ware keeper of the plurality of ware keepers comprises a plurality of retention bodies formed from wire segments and defining a ware receiving volume therebetween, wherein each retention body comprises: a base connection stem engaged with the bottom support plate;a seat segment contiguous with the base connection stem and positioned over and substantially parallel to the bottom support plate;a lower segment coupled to the seat segment;a body segment coupled to the lower segment and extending away from the bottom support plate, the lower segment positioned between the seat segment and the body segment, wherein a diameter of the ware receiving volume enclosed by the lower segment is greater than the diameter of the ware receiving volume enclosed by the body segment;a retention segment coupled to the body segment; anda lever segment coupled to the retention segment, wherein the seat segments of the retention bodies form a ware seat positioned above and substantially parallel to the bottom support plate, the ware seat defining a bottom of the ware receiving volume and configured to support a glass article thereon such that a bottom of the glass article rests directly on the ware seat. 19. An apparatus for holding and retaining glass articles during processing, the apparatus comprising: a base frame comprising a bottom support plate;a plurality of ware keepers positioned on the bottom support plate, wherein each ware keeper of the plurality of ware keepers comprises a plurality of retention bodies formed from wire segments and defining a ware receiving volume therebetween, wherein each retention body comprises: a base connection stem engaged with the bottom support plate;a seat segment contiguous with the base connection stem and positioned over and substantially parallel to the bottom support plate, wherein the seat segment of each retention body is spaced apart from the bottom support plate;a lower segment coupled to the seat segment;a body segment coupled to the lower segment and extending away from the bottom support plate, the lower segment positioned between the seat segment and the body segment;a retention segment coupled to the body segment; anda lever segment coupled to the retention segment, wherein the seat segments of the retention bodies form a ware seat positioned above and substantially parallel to the bottom support plate, the ware seat defining a bottom of the ware receiving volume and configured to support a glass article thereon such that a bottom of the glass article rests directly on the ware seat. 20.
