About glassware of a kind used for table or kitchen purposes (not drinking glasses), of lead crystal

HS code 701341 covers a wide range of lead crystal glassware used for table and kitchen purposes, excluding drinking glasses. This industry plays a significant role in the global tableware and kitchenware market, catering to the demand for high-quality, decorative, and functional glass products. Lead crystal glassware is prized for its clarity, brilliance, and durability, making it a popular choice among consumers seeking elegant and long-lasting tableware solutions.

Production process

The production of lead crystal glassware involves a multi-step process. First, the raw materials, including lead oxide, silica, and other additives, are carefully measured and mixed. The mixture is then melted in a high-temperature furnace, typically reaching temperatures of around 1,400°C. The molten glass is then either hand-blown or machine-pressed into the desired shapes and forms. After shaping, the glassware undergoes annealing, a controlled cooling process that helps to relieve internal stresses and improve the overall strength and durability of the final product.

Production inputs

The primary inputs for the production of lead crystal glassware include lead oxide, silica, and various other minerals and additives. High-quality raw materials are essential to ensure the desired clarity, brilliance, and durability of the final products. Additionally, specialized glassmaking equipment, such as furnaces, molds, and annealing ovens, are crucial for the manufacturing process. Skilled artisans and technicians are also required to oversee the various stages of production, from mixing the raw materials to the final finishing touches.

Production outputs

The main outputs of HS code 701341 are a wide range of lead crystal glassware, including plates, bowls, vases, decanters, and other tableware and kitchenware items.
