5805.00.10.00 - Hand-woven tapestries fit only for use as wall hangings and valued over $215 per square meter

This HTS category, 5805.00.10.00, specifically covers hand-woven tapestries that are exclusively intended for use as wall hangings and possess a value exceeding $215 per square meter. This classification encompasses traditional artisanal tapestries such as Gobelins, Flanders, Aubusson, and Beauvais styles, as well as needle-worked tapestries like petit point and cross stitch. The emphasis is on the method of manufacture (hand-woven or needle-worked) and their designated decorative purpose as wall adornments, distinguishing them from other textile articles.

The defining characteristic of this subcategory is its dual requirement of being hand-crafted with a significant artistic value and a specific end-use as a wall hanging. This differentiates it from the "Other" sibling category (5805.00.90.00), which would encompass tapestries that do not meet the value threshold or are not exclusively for wall hangings, or are made by other methods not fitting the primary description.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, the focus for classification under 5805.00.10.00 rests solely on verifying the hand-woven or needle-worked nature of the tapestry, its clear intent for wall hanging use, and confirmation of its valuation exceeding the specified per square meter threshold.
