Abstract
An elongated durable corrosion resistent dishwasher accessory for securing and supporting stemware in a dishwasher rack. At one end of the dishwasher accessory is a C-shaped clip for connecting to a horizontal wire stringer on a dishwasher rack. At that same end of the dishwasher accessory is a bore that allows a vertical wire stringer to pass within the bore to secure the dishwasher accessory to the dishwasher rack. At the opposite end of the dishwasher accessory is two oppositely positioned gripper jaws with various sized bores therein. These bores clip around the stem of a piece of stemware, which secures the stemware in a vertical downward position within a dishwasher rack when the dishwasher accessory is secured to the wire stringer. This allows the washing streams of water to securely wash the liquid retaining portion of the stemware without upsetting or turning over the stemware in the dishwasher rack. The dishwasher accessory adjusts to different size and different heights of stemware, is durable, simple to construct, and easy to operate.
