Pattern Profile:
Deco Bands, Morning Glory, Normandy, Peach Garland,
Queen's Lace, Rose Trellis (1986)

The Design Images product line was launched in 1986, and it made use of the new rimmed plate shape with a white background.  These six new patterns featured two-colour designs on the rim, and some were patterned in the centre as well.  Deco Bands and Morning Glory were available only as large 40 piece sets while the others came in 20 piece sets usually.  Luncheon plates, 10 oz dessert bowls and 2 Qt serving bowls might not exist for any of these patterns.

Bowls, saucers and platters are decorated only with a matching coloured band.  These pieces for Normandy and Queen's Lace seem to share the same shade of blue, and this might be true of Morning Glory as well.  Peach Garland is trimmed with sage green and Deco Bands is trimmed in taupe.  The trim on Rose Trellis bowls and saucers seems to be taupe as well.

Initially, sets came with porcelain cups in the new Images shape, with straight sides and a rounded bottom.  But for patterns surviving more than two years, these cups would be made of Suprema too.  Peach Garland was offered with straight-sided Suprema mugs as well.  The Images line disappeared in the mid 1990s, but Peach Garland remained available, so near the end of its lifespan it was sold with narrow tapered Occasions cups instead.

A modest selection of matching Corning Ware was also offered in Peach Garland.  Regular square Corning Ware shapes were made in sizes ranging from 1 Qt to 5 Qt.  There might be other sizes too.

Deco Bands and Morning Glory were discontinued during late 1986 or early 1987.  Normandy, Queen’s Lace and Rose Trellis were dropped sometime between 1987 and 1992.  Of this grouping, Peach Garland was available the longest, until January 1995.
