Last updated: August 2026 dataFigurines, decorative vases, ornamental centerpieces, and similar articles of porcelain or bone china whose primary purpose is aesthetic rather than utilitarian are classified here, distinct from functional tableware or household articles. The ornamental-versus-utilitarian boundary is frequently litigated in customs classification disputes, making clear product documentation essential. Imports of porcelain ornamentals from leading producing countries have faced Section 301 tariff exposure, prompting some importers to diversify sourcing or seek product-specific exclusions.

Customs authorities look at the article's design, marketing materials, retail presentation, and physical characteristics. An item sold exclusively as a collectible or decorative piece, with no functional cavity or utility feature, is more readily classified as ornamental. Importers should retain catalog descriptions, product photography, and any collector or giftware market designations as supporting documentation.
Articles certified as antiques — generally over 100 years old — may qualify for duty-free treatment under a separate HTS provision for antiques, regardless of material. Importers claiming antique status must be prepared to provide provenance documentation and, if requested, submit the article for CBP review. Modern reproduction figurines styled after antique designs do not qualify.
