Murano-Style Glass Paperweight from Japan
A colorful, handcrafted glass dome enclosing air bubbles or figurines, designed to hold down papers on desks. Classified in HTS 7020.00.60.00 as other glass articles, distinct from household glassware (7013) due to its office utility and non-tabletop function. The solid, weighted construction qualifies it outside cast/molded categories.
