Abstract
A stemware restraining device that rests upon a surface and comprises a body with a top surface, bottom surface, a thickness, and a combination stem clearance slot () and underside cavity (). Stemware can be slid into the slot cavity combination trapping said stemware's base while allowing the stem to pass vertically upward. The device does not necessarily contact the stemware until said stemware tips due to an external force. When this occurs the base of the stemware comes into contact with the underside cavity of said device and is restrained due to the resistive tipping moment of the device. The resistive tipping moment is provided either by the weight and width of said device or by its mechanical or magnetic attachment to said surface. The slot and cavity combination in general reflects the profile shape of the base and stem of a piece of stemware.
