Dear Ms. Andrews: In your letter dated June 10, 1998, you requested a tariff classification ruling. You have submitted a sample that is identified as style #827TT104HD.

The dress is decorated with lace on the upper front portion. This angel holds a bouquet of artificial flowers, with a ribbon bow and a string of artificial pearls.

The sample is returned as requested. The applicable subheading for the angel, style #827TT104HD, will be 9505.10.2500, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for...articles for Christmas festivities and parts and accessories thereof: Christmas ornaments: other, other.
