7113.19.50.45 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 7113.19.50.45, encompasses articles of jewelry and parts thereof, crafted from precious metal or metal clad with precious metal. Specifically, it falls under the broader classification of jewelry made from "other precious metal, whether or not plated or clad with precious metal." The term "other precious metal" in this context refers to precious metals that are not explicitly covered by more specific subheadings within the 7113.19.50 group.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. Unlike the more specific categories for necklaces and neck chains (7113.19.50.21), rings (7113.19.50.25), and earrings (7113.19.50.30), this classification serves as a residual category for other types of jewelry and parts made from precious metals other than platinum. It captures items that do not fit the defined product types of the preceding sibling categories.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, the focus for classification under 7113.19.50.45 lies in its residual nature. This means that any article of jewelry or a part thereof, made from a precious metal not otherwise specified and not falling into the specific categories of necklaces, rings, or earrings, would be classified here. Examples could include brooches, pendants, bracelets, cufflinks, tie clips, or decorative components for jewelry that do not constitute a finished article of the aforementioned types. The key criterion is that the item is made of precious metal and is not specifically enumerated elsewhere within this immediate hierarchical branch.
