At once traditional and contempo rary. Flecked Honey Beige buds stemmed with deep, dark Charcoal Brown. Warmed with Tawny Yellow and Fiery Bittersweet. Mellow Honey Beige bands the coupe shaped plates. Cups and serving pieces are solid Honey Beige. OAK-APPLE Definitely not born to blush un seen. Oak-Apple Brown blossoms sprinkled with Lemon Drops ... nestling on a spray of Cold, Green, and Charcoal Brown leaves. Brushed lightly with touches of bright Bit tersweet. Mellow Honey Beige bands the coupe shaped plates. Cups and serving pieces are solid Honey Beige. SHERWOOD From England's fabled Sher wood Forest springs the inspiration for Sherwood. Plates come alive with a hand- painted woodland motif. A wreath of earthy shapes in Forest Green tones encircles the vivid heart of Bittersweet and Lemon. Sher wood's basic hue is Burnt Olive banded on plates and solid on all other pieces. MAYFLOWER Color, shape, texture and motif work together to produce this classic expression of the traditional. The basic color—Espresso Brown—is the color of the earth itself. A 17th century Jacobean floral motif—on all plates—introduces color and life into the theme. The motif is hand painted in tones of Golden Ivory, Russet, and Stone Grey. TURNER & TAYLOR JEWELERS
