RE: The tariff classification of a ceramic teapot from China.

Dear Mr. Kurz:

In your letter dated May 13, 1997, on behalf of New Holland Floral, Inc., you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The subject merchandise consists of a ceramic teapot, referred to as the "Violet Teapot" (item number 8C770-12), which is stated to be valued at $22.80 per dozen. It measures about 6 inches in height and possesses a removable lid, serving handle and functional spout. Its lid and front exterior are adorned with a floral motif.

The applicable subheading for the "Violet Teapot" (item number 8C770-12) will be 6912.00.4810, HTS, which provides for other ceramic tableware...other than of porcelain or china...suitable for food or drink contact. The rate of duty will be 10.5 percent ad valorem.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist George Kalkines at 212-466-5794.

Sincerely,
