Claim:
1. A package for an object, said package comprising: a support element provided with means for coupling said object to said support element; a first hollow protective element, referred to as a stopper, coupled to the support element of said object, such that the support element presents a portion, referred to as a grip portion, that projects from said stopper; said support element, alone or in co-operation with the stopper, defining a first chamber containing said object; and a second hollow protective element, referred to as a cover; wherein said cover is coupled to the stopper, so as to co-operate with said stopper to define a second chamber inside which said grip portion of the support element extends; and in that, while the cover is coupled to the stopper, a portion, referred to as a grip portion, of the stopper projects from the cover, and wherein said means for coupling the object to the support element include a deformable elongate body, referred to as a mandrel, along and inside which an orifice is formed for inserting the object; said means also including a bellows that surrounds the mandrel and that is capable of passing from a deployed position of the folds of the bellows, in which said bellows bears against the mandrel in such a manner as to clamp the insertion orifice around the object, to a compressed position of said folds of the bellows, in which the bellows does not press against the mandrel so as to enable the object to move relative to said insertion orifice for inserting the mandrel.
