Earthenware, stoneware, and other non-porcelain ceramic tableware and kitchenware occupy a richly subdivided heading in the US tariff schedule, with lines distinguishing glazed brown/black earthenware (6912001000), hotel/restaurant ware (6912002000), value-tiered household sets, mugs, steins, serviette rings (6912004600), and food-contact articles not in sets. China leads US import supply, with Portugal and Thailand representing significant sources of artisanal and industrial production respectively. Importers sourcing from China should account for Section 301 tariff exposure across the applicable lines.

Line 6912001000 specifically covers glazed earthenware tableware and kitchenware with a brown or black body — a traditional category that includes certain rustic and artisanal wares. Items that do not meet both the glaze and body-color criteria fall into the general non-porcelain ceramic tableware lines based on end-use (hotel/restaurant vs. household) and per-set value thresholds.
Yes. The US schedule separates food- or drink-contact articles not in sets (6912004810) from other non-set tableware (6912004890), and the duty rates for these lines may differ. Importers of individual pieces — such as single mugs or bowls sold outside a set — should confirm whether the article is intended for food or drink contact and classify accordingly, retaining product specifications to support the declaration.
