Other. We disagree with your proposed classification. Chapter 71, HTSUS, provides for imitation jewelry, among other articles. However, Note 3(g) to Chapter 71 excludes from this chapter Goods of section XI (textiles and textile articles). The merchandise at issue is therefore excluded from Chapter 71.
