Micro Landscape
A micro landscape, also known as miniature landscape or diorama, is a scaled-down representation of a natural or imagined environment created within a contained space. These landscapes are typically constructed using a variety of materials to simulate terrain, vegetation, and other features.
Materials
A wide array of materials are employed in micro landscape construction, including:
- Base Materials: Soil, sand, gravel, rocks, foam, and specialized landscape modelling foams form the foundation.
- Vegetation: Mosses (live or preserved), miniature plants (air plants, succulents, small ferns), artificial turf, and model trees are common.
- Hardscape: Small stones, pebbles, driftwood, and miniature structures (houses, fences, bridges) provide detail and focal points.
- Water Features: Resin, epoxy, or glass can simulate ponds, streams, or waterfalls.
- Decorative Elements: Figurines, miniature animals, and other small objects add narrative and visual interest.
- Containers: Glass terrariums, open trays, bowls, repurposed containers, or even custom-built enclosures serve as the landscape’s boundaries.
Purpose & Function
Micro landscapes serve several purposes:
- Aesthetic Appeal: They are visually pleasing and can be used as decorative elements in homes, offices, or gardens.
- Hobby & Craft: The creation of micro landscapes is a popular hobby, offering a creative outlet and a sense of accomplishment.
- Therapeutic Benefits: The process of building and maintaining a micro landscape can be relaxing and meditative.
- Educational Tool: They can be used to demonstrate ecological principles, geological formations, or historical settings.
- Storytelling: Micro landscapes often depict scenes or narratives, allowing for creative expression and imaginative play.
Usage Scenarios
- Home Decoration: Displayed on tables, shelves, or windowsills.
- Office Spaces: Creating calming and inspiring environments.
- Gardening: As miniature garden features or focal points.
- Events & Displays: Used in exhibitions, trade shows, or themed events.
- Zen Gardens: Miniature representations of traditional Japanese Zen gardens.
- Dioramas: Depicting historical events, fictional scenes, or natural environments.
Common Types
- Terrarium Landscapes: Enclosed ecosystems within glass containers, often featuring live plants and mosses. Can be open or closed.
- Paludarium Landscapes: Combining terrestrial and aquatic elements, simulating wetlands or rainforest environments.
- Zen Gardens (Karesansui): Dry landscape gardens featuring rocks, gravel, sand, and carefully raked patterns.
- Dioramas: Representations of specific scenes, often historical or fictional, enclosed within a frame or container.
- Fairy Gardens: Miniature gardens designed to attract fairies, featuring small houses, furniture, and whimsical elements.
- Desert Landscapes: Simulating arid environments with cacti, succulents, and rocks.
- Mountain Landscapes: Replicating mountainous terrain with rocks, gravel, and miniature trees.
- Forest Landscapes: Depicting woodland environments with trees, mosses, and small plants.
Based on the provided information, determining the precise HS code for “micro landscape” requires careful consideration of the materials and specific composition. The following HS codes may be relevant:
- 9701290000: This code covers paintings, drawings and pastels, executed entirely by hand, other than drawings of heading 4906 and other than hand-painted or hand-decorated manufacture articles; collages, mosaics and similar decorative plaques: Of an age exceeding 100 years: Other. If the micro landscape is created as a hand-painted artwork, and is over 100 years old, this code may apply. The total tax rate is 37.5%, comprised of a 0.0% base tariff and a 7.5% additional tariff, increasing to 30% after April 2, 2025.
- 9701990000: This code covers paintings, drawings and pastels, executed entirely by hand, other than drawings of heading 4906 and other than hand-painted or hand-decorated manufacture articles; collages, mosaics and similar decorative plaques: Other: Other. If the micro landscape is a hand-created artwork that does not meet the age requirement of 9701290000, this code may be applicable. The total tax rate is 37.5%, comprised of a 0.0% base tariff and a 7.5% additional tariff, increasing to 30% after April 2, 2025.
- 9703900000: This code covers original sculptures and statuary, in any material: Other. If the micro landscape incorporates three-dimensional sculptural elements, this code may be relevant.

- 4823901000: This code covers other paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibers, cut to size or shape; other articles of paper pulp, paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding or webs of cellulose fibers: Other: Of paper pulp. If the micro landscape is primarily constructed from paper pulp, this code may apply. The total tax rate is 55.0%, comprised of a 0.0% base tariff and a 25.0% additional tariff, increasing to 30% after April 2, 2025.
It is important to note that the final HS code determination depends on the specific materials used and the overall nature of the micro landscape. If the micro landscape is composed of multiple materials, the predominant material should be used to determine the appropriate HS code.
