Sandalwood was one of the earliest patterns released, but it did not resonate well with the consumer market so was discontinued after only a yearlong run.

Initially it was produced only on a Cinderella Bowl set (440-5) and a Bake, Serve and Store set (470-5). A refrigerator set and a butter dish were released later.

Sandalwood was produced as either a tan pattern on a white background or a white pattern on a tan background.
