RE:  The tariff classification of a decorative ceramic vase from
Taiwan.

Dear Ms. Webster:

  In your letter dated July 31, 1991, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.  

  The sample submitted is a cotton fabric covered pottery vase,
known as the "Sweet Memories Vase" (style number 91695), which
measures approximately 4.75" high and 14.5" in circumference at
its maximum dimensions.

  The applicable subheading for the decorative vase will be
6913.90.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for other ornamental ceramic articles.  The
rate of duty will be 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,
