Note.By the term used in the tariff, covered with lacquer con- taining gold or silver, the cover­ing with a lacquer containing real gold or silver (pulverised metal) is always to he understood; whereas, the covering with other than that containing gold or silver, i.e., the lacquers which are only an imitation of the gilding or silvering (by which are understood those spirituous or oily varnishes and lacquers which are coloured yellow or white by means of organic substances, and are laid on metal wares and give them the appearance of being gilded or silvered), brings the article under the category of ordinary lacquered goods.

The former, the varnish containing gold or silver, conceals the material covered with it completely, whilst the latter is, as a rule, transparent or translucent. By means of a mag­nifying glass the metallic powder mixed up with it will at once be recognisable.
