Dear Ms. Smith:

In your letter dated June 17, 1997 you requested a tariff classification ruling.

They consist of three carved and painted flat snowmen hinged together. Stock No. 91042 is a carolers design table screen decoration.

Stock No. 91043 is a nutcracker design table screen decoration. It consists of four carved and painted flat nutcrackers hinged together. It measures overall approximately 13 inches high by 15 inches wide but has spaces between the nutcrackers. Stock No. 91041 is a set of three separately standing carved and painted thick wooden snowmen with plaid scarves.

The applicable subheading for the wooden table screen decorations and the carved wooden snowmen will be 4420.10.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States Annotated (HTSUSA), which provides for statuettes and other ornaments, of wood. The rate of duty will be 4 percent ad valorem.
