Overview
This classification, "Of ceramic tile," encompasses ornamental ceramic articles that are specifically manufactured from or incorporate ceramic tile as their primary component. These are decorative items, distinct from functional ceramic tiles used for building or flooring. Examples could include decorative wall hangings, mosaic-style figurines, or statuettes where the ornamental piece is constructed entirely from small pieces of ceramic tile, or where the entire article is shaped and finished to resemble a ceramic tile in its decorative form.
This category is distinguished from its sibling categories by its material composition. "Of ceramic tile" focuses on articles where the ceramic tile itself is the defining material or structural element of the ornament. This contrasts with "Of earthenware, whether or not decorated, having a reddish-colored body and a lustrous glaze, and mottled, streaked or solidly colored brown to black with metallic oxide or salt," which refers to specific types of earthenware with particular aesthetic and compositional qualities, and "Other," which serves as a residual category for ornamental ceramic articles not otherwise specified.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this HTS code relies on a precise determination that the ornamental article is indeed made of or primarily comprises ceramic tile, distinguishing it from other ornamental ceramic wares. The key classification criterion is the use and form of ceramic tile in the creation of the decorative object.
