7101.22.60.00 - Other

This classification covers cultured pearls that have been worked but do not fall into the specifically enumerated sibling category. "Worked" in this context generally refers to processes beyond mere grading and temporary stringing, such as drilling, polishing, or shaping, intended to enhance their appearance or prepare them for further use. This category encompasses cultured pearls that have undergone such treatments but are not yet strung, mounted, or set in jewelry.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 7101.22.30.00, is crucial. While the sibling specifically addresses cultured pearls that are graded and *temporarily strung for convenience of transport*, this category captures worked cultured pearls that are either not temporarily strung or have undergone work beyond mere grading. The key differentiator lies in the degree of processing and the intended state of presentation for import or export.

As this is a terminal node within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on whether a cultured pearl is considered "worked" and whether it fits the specific exclusion of being temporarily strung for transport. Importers and exporters should carefully examine the processing applied to their cultured pearls to ensure accurate classification under this residual "Other" category for worked cultured pearls.
