Abstract (en)

A drying receptacle is provided that defines an interior cavity therein. At least one dividing member is fixedly attached in the interior cavity for dividing the interior cavity into at least first and second compartments. A closeable opening is defined in the first compartment for allowing selective access to the first compartment in use. Hanging means are provided on or associated with the first compartment for allowing the drying receptacle and/or one or more items locatable in the first compartment to be hung in use. Drainage means are provided on or associated with the second compartment to allow fluid present in the second compartment to be drained and/or removed in use. The dividing member is formed from, consists of or includes a mesh material to allow any fluid present in the first compartment to freely pass into the second compartment when the receptacle and/or one or more items are in a hung position in use.
