7013.99.10.00 - Glassware decorated with metal flecking, glass pictorial scenes or glass thread- or ribbon-like effects, any of the foregoing embedded or introduced into the body of the glassware prior to its solidification; millefiori glassware; glassware colored prior to solidification, and characterized by random distribution of numerous bubbles, seeds or stones, throughout the mass of the glass

This HTS category encompasses glassware intended for various domestic and decorative purposes, excluding items specifically covered under headings 7010 (carboys, bottles, jars, etc.) and 7018 (beads, imitation gems, etc.). Specifically, it covers glassware that exhibits unique artistic or decorative features achieved during the manufacturing process. These features include metal flecking, pictorial scenes crafted from glass, or thread- or ribbon-like glass effects embedded or introduced into the glass before solidification. It also includes millefiori glassware, characterized by its mosaic-like patterns, and glassware that is colored before solidification and features a random distribution of bubbles, seeds, or stones throughout the glass mass.

Within the broader classification of "Other glassware" for table, kitchen, toilet, office, and indoor decoration, this specific subheading distinguishes itself from its sibling category, 7013.99.20.00, which covers pressed and toughened (specially tempered) glassware. While both fall under "Other," this current node focuses on decorative effects achieved through specialized internal or coloration techniques rather than the physical property of being pressed or tempered. The key differentiator lies in the method of achieving the aesthetic and structural characteristics of the glassware.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 7013.99.10.00 is on the presence and nature of the described decorative elements. Importers and exporters should carefully examine the manufacturing process and the visual characteristics of the glassware to ensure it meets the criteria for metal flecking, embedded glass effects, millefiori, or random bubble/seed/stone coloration prior to solidification, as opposed to other forms of decoration applied after the glass has cooled or other specialized treatments like tempering.
