The rims have a combined depth at least equal to the width of the receptacle to accommodate it in the closed position of the covers. The container has at least one pivotable receptacle for holding at least one of said objects, said receptacle having part of said pivoting means and a bottom surface adjoining said pivoting means, said receptacle being mounted between the rims of the said covers to said pivoting means. On opening the container the receptacle is automatically erected and exposed for ease of handling of the articles and visual inspection.
