The edges on the ruffle portion are scalloped and contain an embroidered design. It is designed to fit between the box spring and mattress and borders the bottom of the bed. The pillowsham measures approximately 18-11/16 inches by 30 inches exclusive of a 4-1/2 inch decorative edge that extends to form a frame effect.

Based upon international trade agreements, products of Thailand are subject to visa requirements. The designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected. Since part categories are the result of international bilateral agreements which are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes, to obtain the most current information available, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the Status Report On Current Import Quotas (Restraint Levels),an internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available for inspection at your local Customs office. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177). A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction. Sincerely, Jean F.
