Acetate-Wool Filament Blend Curtain Fabric
> This is an unbleached woven fabric made from acetate filament yarn blended with 42% wool, constructed in a plain weave for sheer curtains. It falls under tariff item 5407.91.00 because it is a woven fabric of synthetic filament yarn (acetate is an artificial filament, classified under heading 54.03) that is unbleached and not otherwise processed. The wool content does not preclude classification here, as the fabric retains its essential character as a synthetic filament woven textile.
