A container for storing, dispensing and applying solid and semi-solid materials, and being fillable, optionally, from the top or from the bottom. The container assembly is characterized by improved seals between a product supporting and elevating platform and the circumscribing body of the container and by simple yet highly effective bottom closure interlocks, seals, and vents rendering feasible the filling of the container conveniently from the bottom as well as from the top.

Product storage container and dispenser

A unitary, integrally-formed, tubular receptacle serving as a storage receptacle from which fluid or fluid-like material is retrieved and applied by means of an insertable rod-like wand. The receptacle includes a container body of an elongated tubular configuration and integrally connected at its upper open end by means of an annular washer-like flange to a neck of substantially reduced diameter and defining a restricted internal passage having a radially inwardly directed annular wiping ring. The neck opens upwardly into a dish-like open-end throat having a curved lower sector defining a downwardly and inwardly directed wall surface serving as a guideway for entry of a wand downwardly through the restricted passage and also as a drain for facilitating return of excess wand-carried fluid material to the storage reservoir of the receptacle.
