The subject merchandise, described in your letter as “Trudeau 19-piece Cocktail Set”, is a set consisting of six conical-shaped glass vessels which will be used as drinking glasses, six square glass vessels which will hold the cone-shaped glass items, six glass cocktail picks, and one wooden tray. You stated in your letter that each cone-shaped glass article rests inside each square glass article that is filled with ice. Once the cone-shaped glass article is chilled, it is then filled with a mixed drink. The pick is for stirring or for skewering an olive, cherry, etc. The six square glass vessels are designed to fit into the wooden tray.

You indicated in your letter that the complete19-piece cocktail set will be imported and packed together ready for retail sale as a set.
