Overview
This HTS category, 7117.90.75.00, specifically covers imitation jewelry articles that are predominantly made of plastics. This includes a wide array of non-precious items designed to resemble fine jewelry, such as bangles, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and rings, where the primary constituent material is plastic. The key defining characteristic is the material composition, setting these items apart from those made from other materials.
Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 7117.90.90.00 "Other," is crucial. While both fall under the broad umbrella of "other" imitation jewelry not specifically enumerated elsewhere and valued over 20 cents per dozen pieces or parts, the "Of plastics" designation provides a precise material classification. Therefore, any imitation jewelry article that is not primarily plastic would fall into the "Other" sibling category.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 7117.90.75.00 is determined by the material of construction being plastic and meeting the valuation criteria of being worth more than 20 cents per dozen pieces or parts, while not being classifiable under more specific imitation jewelry headings.
