## Common ground

## Options at a glance
**4202.1X – Made of common materials**
- **Defining trait:** Constructed from widely used materials like leather, plastic sheeting, textiles, paperboard, or covered with them.
- **Typical examples:** Leather briefcase, polyester suitcase, paperboard school satchel.
- **Best fit when:** The container is made primarily of standard, non-woven materials commonly used in everyday bags.
**4602 – Made of plaiting materials**
- ****Defining trait:** Crafted from woven or plaited natural or synthetic fibers (e.g., rattan, bamboo, reeds).
- **Typical examples:** Wicker suitcase, bamboo basket-style case, reed-woven travel bag.
- **Best fit when:** The container has a visible, flexible, interwoven structure typical of basketwork.
## Key differences
| Feature | 4202.1X (Common materials) | 4602 (Plaiting materials) |
|---------------------|----------------------------|----------------------------|
| Material base | Leather, plastic, fabric, paperboard | Woven fibers (rattan, reed, etc.) |
| Construction | Solid or layered sheets | Interwoven, flexible structure |
| Visual texture | Smooth or uniform | Visible weave pattern |
## How to choose
- Is the container made of leather, plastic sheeting, fabric, or paperboard? → 4202.1X
- Does it have a visible woven or plaited structure (like basketry)? → 4602
## Overlaps & pitfalls
A case may combine both materials (e.g., a wicker frame with a fabric lining), but the **primary structural material** determines the classification. If the outer shell is woven, it belongs in 4602; if made of sheets or coverings, use 4202.1X. The key is the dominant construction method
