DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION FIG. 1 of the drawings shows a preferred embodiment of the novel kitchen utensil holder H in the fully assembled or operative position, utilizing all three tiers or sections. As shown, the holder H includes a vertically extending cylindrical lower base section B; a vertically extending, cylindrical, intermediate section I smaller in diameter than and projecting upwardly from the base section B concentrically therewith; and a vertically extending, cylindrical, top section T smaller in diameter than the intermediate section I and projecting upwardly from the section I concentrically therewith. The base section B includes an annular, unitary injection molded plastic part containing concentric, radially spaced, cylindrical, vertically extending inner and outer walls 10 and 11, respectively, and a plurality of vertical, circumferentially spaced, radially extending partitions P joined integrally with and extending between the walls 10 and 11, thereby defining an outer series of vertically extending, utensil receiving compartments C. As presently constructed, the base section B is approximately 91/2" in outside diameter, about 53/4" in inside diameter, and about 4" in vertical dimension. It is provided with thirteen partitions P defining 12 compartments C. In the preferred form of the invention, the upper edges of the walls 10 and 11 and of the partitions P are provided with webs and flanges F which extend about the open tops of the compartments C and impart to the top of the section B an attractive and finished appearance. The lower edge of the inner wall 10 terminates a short distance above the bottom plane of the base section B which is defined by the lower edge of the outer wall 11 (FIG. 7). A horizontal, molded plastic disc-like bottom wall 12 (FIG. 7) is positioned in the lower end of the base section B within the outer wall 11 and adjacent the lower edge of the inner wall 10. The bottom wall 12, which closes the lower ends of the compartments C, is held in position by a plurality of circumferentially spaced latches or pawls 15, formed on the bottom wall 12 and engaged with an inwardly projecting retaining lip 16 formed on the lower edge of the inner wall 10 (FIG
