Leather-Trimmed Silk Tassel
A decorative silk tassel with a genuine leather-wrapped cord base, used as a high-end bookmark or purse charm. The principal textile material is silk, placing it under tariff item 6307.90.99 as an other made-up article of other textile materials. The minor leather component does not alter the classification, as it does not change the essential character of the article.

More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the tassel is made solely of silk without the leather trim
This alternative covers made-up articles of silk, which may be more specific if the leather component is negligible or absent.
If the tassel is attached to a small purse or wallet as an integral part
Articles of textile materials of heading 42.02 are excluded from Section XI, so a tassel forming part of a small carrying case would fall here.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the silk content is clearly stated on the commercial invoice, as classification depends on the principal textile material
• Be prepared to provide a sample or detailed product description if requested by the CBSA to confirm the article is not a finished accessory of another chapter
• Verify whether the leather component triggers any additional labelling requirements under Canadian consumer product regulations
