RE:  The tariff classification of desk equipment from Taiwan.

Dear Ms. Webster:

     In your letter dated July 5, 1991 you requested a tariff
classification ruling.         

     The sample that you submitted is a desk set consisting of a
gold plated brass name card holder, a letter opener with a gold
plated brass blade and black marble handle, and a black glass
miniature globe shaped paper weight.     
     The applicable subheading for the desk set will be
8304.00,0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for desk top, office or desk equipment. 
The rate of duty will be 5.7 percent ad valorem.   

     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,
