Problems solved by technology

There are purse or handbag hangers on the market that have not been successful due to many factors.
The problem that a purse hanger is trying to solve is where does someone place their purse while at a counter, bar or table.
An extra chair is not always available.
A purse hanger holds the purse under the table or bar while providing a visual indication of the purse but doesn't take up much usable space.
As illustrated, one problem with this purse holder is that the surface contact end only has a small portion that remains in contact with the surface of the table.
This is because the shape of the prior art hanger limits what it can be hung from.
This can cause the purse holder to dislodge easily from the table surface and defeat the purpose of keeping a purse off the floor.
This is due to the fact the bangle bracelet is not intended to hold the weight of a purse.
