Abstract
A two piece container including a tray piece for holding an item and a cover piece adapted to telescopically fit over the tray is disclosed. Each container piece has a first wall and sidewalls which extend from and taper outwardly from the first wall. The sidewalls of the tray piece meet at corners which have cut-out sections to provide for inward flexibility of the tray sidewalls when the cover is fitted over the tray. A blank for forming the tray piece according to the present invention is also disclosed.
