7013.28.60 - Valued over $5 each

This HTS category, 7013.28.60, specifically covers stemware drinking glasses, excluding those made of glass-ceramics, which are classified elsewhere. The defining characteristic of this subcategory is its value. Goods falling under 7013.28.60 are those where each individual item is valued at over $5. This broad classification encompasses a wide array of stemware intended for various uses, including serving beverages at the table, for kitchen use, or as decorative items, provided they meet the value threshold.

Crucially, this category distinguishes itself from its sibling, 7013.28.50. While both pertain to stemware drinking glasses valued over $3, the differentiator lies in the upper value limit. Goods classified under 7013.28.50 are valued between $3 and $5 each, whereas this category, 7013.28.60, applies to stemware whose individual value exceeds $5. This price point distinction is a primary factor in ensuring accurate import and export declarations.

Within this category, two further subcategories exist to provide more granular classification. The first, 7013.28.60.10, applies to stemware specifically identified as crystalline or non-lead crystal. This designation often refers to the quality of glass, clarity, and refractive properties. The second subcategory, 7013.28.60.90, encompasses all other stemware drinking glasses that meet the overall criteria of being valued over $5 each but are not specifically classified as crystalline or non-lead crystal. This allows for the accurate categorization of a wide range of stemware based on material composition and value.
