Last updated: July 2026 dataSterling silver and other silver tableware, flatware, and household articles — knives, forks, spoons, ladles, and related sets — enter the US under this heading when they are functional wares rather than jewelry. Italy and Turkey are the leading suppliers, reflecting deep silversmithing traditions in both countries and strong demand from the US hospitality and gift sectors. The US tariff schedule is unusually granular here, with dedicated 10-digit lines for sterling silver knife handles (7114111000), fork handles (7114112000), spoon and ladle handles (7114113000), gold or platinum-handled spoons and ladles (7114114000), complete sterling flatware sets (7114114500), and broader sterling tableware (7114115000), as well as lines covering silver household articles and other silver articles not elsewhere specified. Correct classification turns on whether the article is sterling (92.5% silver) versus lower-purity silver and on the specific article type.

Sterling silver is defined as an alloy of at least 92.5% silver. Several 10-digit lines under 711411 are specifically reserved for sterling silver articles (e.g., 7114111000 through 7114115000), while lines such as 7114115500 and 7114117000 cover silver articles of other purities or types not elsewhere specified. Declaring the wrong purity can result in misclassification.
Sets containing both sterling silver and gold or platinum-handled pieces may need to be classified by the component that gives the set its essential character, or broken out into separate line items. CBP guidance and General Rule of Interpretation 3 apply; consulting a licensed customs broker is advisable before entry.
