All four edges will be hemmed. These items will contain silk-thread embroidery, a lace trim, or both embroidery and a lace trim. The tablecloths will be made in standard table linen sizes. As requested the samples will be returned.

The applicable subheading for the tablecloths and napkins will be 6302.52.1020, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for bed linen, table linen, toilet linen, and kitchen linen: other table linen: of flax: tablecloths and napkins...other.
