DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 5 thereof, a new animal vase device embodying the principles and concepts of an embodiment of the disclosure and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.


As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 5, the plush animal vase assembly 10 generally comprises a stuffed animal 12 that has a container well 14 integrated therein. The stuffed animal 12 has a body 16, a head 18, a pair of arms 20 and a pair of legs 22. The head 18 has a crown 24 and the container well 14 extends into the crown 24 and downwardly into the body 16. The stuffed animal 12 may be a teddy bear, a cartoon character or any other type of stuffed animal 12.


A vase 26 is provided and the vase 26 is insertable into the container well 14. In this way the vase 26 can display a floral arrangement 28 in conjunction with the stuffed animal 12. The vase 26 has a bottom end 30 and a top end 32, and the top end 32 is open. The container well 14 insertably receives the bottom end 30 having the top end 32 being spaced from the crown 24 of the head 18 when the vase 26 is seated in the container well 14. The vase 26 may be a glass floral vase or any other type of container for displaying plants.


In use, the vase 26 is inserted into the container well 14 and the floral arrangement 28 is positioned in the vase 26. In this way the stuffed animal 12 and the floral arrangement 28 can be displayed together. Additionally, the stuffed animal 12 and the floral arrangement 28 can be presented together such as for a get well message, a congratulatory gift or for any other reason. In this way the stuffed animal 12 and the vase 26 enhance the joy and the viewing pleasure of the recipient.


With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of an embodiment enabled by the disclosure, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by an embodiment of the disclosure.


Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the disclosure. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the disclosure to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the disclosure. In this patent document, the word “comprising” is used in its non-limiting sense to mean that items following the word are included, but items not specifically mentioned are not excluded. A reference to an element by the indefinite article “a” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be only one of the elements.
