A Drip Dickey is a "collar" designed to fit over the necks of wine bottles. The function of a Drip Dickey is twofold: to accessorize and add individual color and charm to a wine bottle, and also to absorb any drops of wine that are left over after pouring. This absorption of excess wine helps to prevent the staining of table linens, carpets and other items that could possibly be exposed to wine droplets. Drip Dickeys can be washed and reused, but are also inexpensive enough ($1.75/each) to be disposed after a single use.http://www.dripdickey.com/55601.html

The Drip Dickey was invented by the Drip Dickey Corporation. According to their official website, the patent for the Drip Dickey is pending.http://www.dripdickey.com/55601.html Drip Dickeys are elasticized, ensuring that they fit any wine bottle, but may also be used on other long-necked bottles, including vinegar, olive oil and other condiment bottles.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drip_dickey
