Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the sconce is presented as a candlestick or candelabra rather than a wall-mounted fitting
Candlesticks and candelabras are specifically listed in the sibling tariff item, which may apply if the product is designed primarily as a candle holder.
If the sconce is part of a larger piece of furniture or sold with a shelf
Furniture designed for placing on the floor or ground falls under heading 94.03, but wall-mounted items are excluded unless they are cupboards, bookcases, or shelved furniture.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the sconce is classified as a non-electrical lighting fitting and not as furniture under Chapter 94; if it is designed to be fixed to the wall, it may still qualify under heading 94.05
• Declare the material (brass) accurately to avoid reclassification, and keep proof of origin to claim any preferential tariff treatment under Canada's trade agreements
