Decorative Butterfly Hair Pins from Japan
Decorative butterfly hair pins feature butterfly-shaped metal or plastic tops for ornamental hairstyles, with a functional pin base for securing hair. They qualify as hair pins under tariff item 9615.90.00, as decoration does not change the primary function. The ornamental top is a minor constituent.
