Last updated: April 2026 dataOrnamental ceramic articles made from earthenware, stoneware, terracotta, and other non-porcelain bodies are subdivided in the US schedule by material and manufacturing method: handmade statues and flowers (6913901000), tile-based ornamentals (6913902000), red-body earthenware with brown or black glaze (6913903000), and a residual NESOI line (6913905000).

Section 301 tariffs apply to goods of Chinese origin across these lines.

Decorative articles made from ceramic tile that serve an ornamental rather than a covering function are specifically addressed in line 6913902000. The key classification question is whether the article's primary purpose is ornamental display versus architectural installation. If the tile panel is framed, mounted for hanging, or sold as artwork, 6913902000 is the appropriate line; if it is intended for installation as a surface covering, it would fall under Chapter 69's tile headings instead. A licensed customs broker can assist with borderline cases.
CBP may request evidence that articles classified under the handmade statues line (6913901000) were individually crafted rather than slip-cast or machine-formed. Acceptable documentation typically includes a manufacturer's affidavit describing the production process, photographs of the workshop, or a certificate from a recognized trade body. Importers should secure this documentation before shipment, as post-entry verification can be difficult.
