Hand-Hooked Wool Blend Area Rug from Canada
This hand-hooked area rug features tufts of wool blend yarn inserted and knotted by hand, creating a textured pile surface on a woven backing. It is classified under HTS 5701.90.20.10 because it uses other textile materials (not wool or fine animal hair) and meets the hand-hooked definition with manually knotted tufts. Ideal for living rooms, it exposes textile materials as the primary surface in use.

Import Tips
• Verify the yarn composition via lab tests to confirm 'other textile materials' status, as wool content over 5% shifts to 5701.10
• Provide affidavits or artisan certifications proving hand-hooking process to avoid misclassification as machine-made
• Include detailed invoices specifying tufting method and backing material to prevent delays at customs
