4601.94.20.00 - Of willow or wood

This HTS category, 4601.94.20.00, specifically covers plaits, matting, screens, and similar articles manufactured from willow or wood. These items are characterized by their construction from plaiting materials, where the raw materials are willow or wood, formed into strips or strands and then assembled, woven, or bound together. The finished articles can range from decorative screens and mats to functional components, provided they are made from these specified wood materials.

The distinction from its sibling category, 4601.94.40.00, which is also classified under "Of other vegetable materials: Other," lies in the specific raw material. While both fall under broader classifications of non-straw or esparto plaiting materials, this particular subcategory is exclusively for items made from willow or wood. Other categories within Chapter 46 would cover articles made from different plant-based materials like straw, bamboo, or rattan.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 4601.94.20.00 is definitive for finished or unfinished articles of plaiting materials that are explicitly made of willow or wood, and do not fall into more specific classifications based on the type of plaiting material or the article's construction.
