RE:  The tariff classification of stoneware dinnerware from China.

Dear Mr. Roth:

     In your letter dated January 10, 1996, you requested a tariff classification ruling.  

     The merchandise at issue is stoneware dinnerware that is
identified as in the patterns 844 Bravo Black, 846 Bravo White and 852 Bravo Hunter Green.   The information submitted indicates that the patterns are principally for household use and are "available in specified sets" in accordance with Chapter 69, additional U.S. note 6(b) of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, with an aggregate value of over $38.00. 

     The applicable subheading for the above stoneware dinnerware
sets will be 6912.00.39, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for ceramic household tableware, other
than of porcelain or china, available in specified sets, in a
pattern for which the aggregate value of the articles listed in
additional U.S. note 6(b) of Chapter 69 is over $38.  The duty rate
will be 4.5 percent ad valorem.
                    
     This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
