ABSTRACT:
A display device having a display background and a light. The display background has a decorative field into which an indicator is disposed. The light is disposed rearwardly of the display background such that illumination of the light illuminates the indicator to permit a viewer to distinguish between the indicator and a remainder of the decorative field. The indicator forms a portion of the decorative field and is indistinguishable from the remainder of the decorative field when the light is not illuminated. A method for forming a display device is also provided.
