The man-made fiber woven flowers are permanently affixed inside the glass vase in a clear acrylic base that appears as water. Glass pebbles are dispersed throughout the clear acrylic.

The sample is returned as you requested.

The applicable subheading for the artificial flowers in a glass vase will be 6702.90.3500, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for artificial flowers, foliage and fruit and parts thereof; articles made of artificial flowers, foliage or fruit: Other: of man-made fibers.
