Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 701890 when importing or exporting lamp worked glass ornaments and statuettes, such as decorative figurines or artistic pieces made from glass. These items are often crafted using techniques that involve melting glass and shaping it into intricate designs.
This code is specifically for articles made from lamp worked glass, which distinguishes them from other glass products like beads or imitation pearls classified under HS-6 701837. While both fall under the same heading, the techniques and end uses vary significantly.
