In your letter dated December 15, 1995, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

These samples are pictured in the accompanying photo brochure as items #103 copper twisted bracelet, #110 brass crimped brooch, #112.1B copper crimped oxidized brooch, #115 aluminum brooch and #121.2C copper crimped patinated earrings. Items #110 and #112.1B are are brooches with attached leather ropes and separate stick pins. These items are indicated to be 4 in one items. The brooches can be used alone, with the stick pins or with the leather ropes as pendants. The stick pins can be used separately as pins. Items #103, #115 and # 121.2C are one use items.

Your samples are being returned as requested.

The applicable subheading for the five samples will be 7117.19.9000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Imitation jewelry: Of base metal, whether or not plated with precious metal: Other: Other: Other. The rate of duty will be 11% ad valorem.
