Porcelain sculptures, cherished for their artistic and cultural value, must adhere to stringent safety standards when exported internationally. Key regulations include compliance with heavy metal limits (e.g., lead and cadmium) under frameworks like the EU’s REACH or the U.S. CPSIA, ensuring non-toxic materials. Physical safety is critical; fragile pieces require impact-resistant packaging and clear fragility labels to prevent breakage during transit. Additionally, flammability standards (e.g., ASTM International) may apply for sculptures with decorative elements. Proper documentation, including certificates of origin and material safety data sheets (MSDS), is mandatory for customs clearance. By meeting these benchmarks, exporters ensure their porcelain art aligns with global trade requirements while preserving its integrity and appeal.
