The submitted samples consist of the following candleholder sets, item number PP1019845, that are referred to as the “Autumn Vineyard Votive Holders”: a frosted-glass goblet-styled holder that measures approximately 8 ½ inches in overall height with a top diameter of 3 inches and an interior candle depth of 2 3/8 inches, noting the candle will be resting atop a small recessed area; and a frosted-glass holder, measuring about 3 3/8 inches high, with a top diameter of 4 7/8 inches which tapers down to an interior-base diameter of 1 ¾ inches. Both candleholders contain votive-like unscented wax candles and feature grape-like designs. It is stated that these sets at the time of importation are put up in a manner suitable for sale directly to users without repacking.

The applicable subheading for these decorative glass candleholder sets will be 9405.50.4000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other non-electrical lamps and lighting fittings, other. The rate of duty will be 6 percent ad valorem.
