6912.00.46.00 - Serviette rings 🖩

This HTS classification, 6912.00.46.00, specifically designates serviette rings made from ceramic materials, excluding porcelain or china. These are decorative or functional articles designed to hold folded napkins, typically used as part of a table setting. The classification focuses on the singular item of a serviette ring, emphasizing its specific purpose of securing linens for dining.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling classifications. While 6912.00.41.00 covers a broader range of "other" tableware and kitchenware items like candy boxes and decanters, and 6912.00.44.00 specifies mugs and steins, 6912.00.46.00 isolates the serviette ring. Furthermore, 6912.00.45.00 differentiates based on specific value thresholds per dozen for various items, a criterion not applicable to this particular classification of serviette rings. Lastly, 6912.00.48.00 serves as a residual "other" category for ceramic household articles not otherwise specified, making 6912.00.46.00 the precise designation for serviette rings.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the primary focus remains on correctly identifying articles whose sole or primary function is to serve as a serviette ring, made from ceramic materials that are not porcelain or china. Any deviation in material composition or primary function would necessitate consideration of alternative HTS codes.
