CHAPTER

83 — Miscellaneous articles of base metal

In plain English

This heading covers bells, gongs, statuettes, ornaments, frames for photographs or pictures, and mirrors made from base metal. The items are categorized by type and material composition. Bells and gongs are grouped together as non-electric articles. Statuettes and ornaments are separated based on whether they are plated with precious metal or made of other base metals. Frames and mirrors are listed as a distinct category of base metal goods.
