Snow Doll Mold
A snow doll mold is a tool used to create shaped figures from snow, typically for decorative or recreational purposes. These molds facilitate the creation of detailed snow sculptures without requiring advanced sculpting skills.
Material
Snow doll molds are most commonly constructed from:
- Plastic: Durable, lightweight, and readily available. Often used for reusable molds. Different grades of plastic are used, with thicker plastics offering greater longevity.
- Metal: Provides greater structural integrity and can handle more compaction force, resulting in sharper details. Less common due to weight and potential for snow adhesion.
- Silicone: Flexible and allows for easy snow removal, but less common for larger molds due to lack of structural support.
Purpose
The primary purpose of a snow doll mold is to:
- Shape Snow: Provide a defined form for snow to be packed into, creating figures like snowmen, animals, or other decorative shapes.
- Simplify Snow Sculpture: Enable individuals with limited sculpting experience to create visually appealing snow figures.
- Recreational Activity: Offer a fun and engaging winter activity for children and adults.
Function
Snow doll molds function by:
- Compaction: The mold provides a contained space where snow can be packed tightly, increasing its density and ability to hold a shape.
- Form Definition: The interior shape of the mold dictates the final form of the snow sculpture.
- Layered Construction: Some molds are designed for layered construction, allowing for complex shapes to be created by adding snow in stages.
Usage Scenarios
- Home Decoration: Creating snow figures for yards and gardens during winter.
- Winter Events: Used in snow sculpting competitions or for creating decorative displays at winter festivals.
- Family Activities: A popular pastime for families during snowy weather.
- Playgrounds & Resorts: Often found in areas with consistent snowfall to provide entertainment for visitors.
Common Types
- Single-Piece Molds: Simplest design, often used for basic shapes like snowmen or snowballs. The mold is filled, compacted, and then removed.
- Multi-Piece Molds: Consist of two or more parts that fit together to create more complex shapes. These allow for greater detail and more intricate sculptures.
- Stackable Molds: Designed to be stacked on top of each other to create larger figures or towers.
- Character Molds: Specifically shaped to create figures of popular characters, animals, or other recognizable forms.
- Snowball Maker Molds: Smaller molds designed for quickly creating perfectly round snowballs.
- Large-Scale Molds: Used for creating large, impressive snow sculptures, often requiring multiple people to fill and compact the snow.
Based on the provided information, “snow doll mold” can be classified under the following HS codes:
- 9602005080: Worked vegetable or mineral carving material and articles of these materials; molded or carved articles of wax, of stearin, of natural gums or natural resins, of modeling pastes, and other molded or carved articles, not elsewhere specified or included; worked, unhardened gelatin (except gelatin of heading 3503) and articles of unhardened gelatin: Other Other. This code covers molded or carved articles not specifically classified elsewhere, potentially including molds made from materials like wax or modeling pastes. The basic duty is 2.7%, with an additional duty of 7.5%, resulting in a total duty of 40.2%.
- 9602001040: Worked vegetable or mineral carving material and articles of these materials; molded or carved articles of wax, of stearin, of natural gums or natural resins, of modeling pastes, and other molded or carved articles, not elsewhere specified or included; worked, unhardened gelatin (except gelatin of heading 3503) and articles of unhardened gelatin: Worked unhardened gelatin and articles thereof Unfilled gelatin capsules. This code applies to articles made from unhardened gelatin, which could include molds if they are constructed from this material. The basic duty is 3.0%, with an additional duty of 7.5%, resulting in a total duty of 40.5%.
- 3901905501: Polymers of ethylene, in primary forms: Other: Other: Ethylene copolymers. If the mold is made of ethylene copolymers, this HS code may be applicable. The basic duty is 6.5%, with an additional duty of 25.0%, resulting in a total duty of 61.5%.
Please note that the final classification depends on the specific material composition of the “snow doll mold”. It is recommended to verify the material and consult with customs authorities for accurate classification.
