Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the chandelier is presented as a candelabra rather than a general lighting fitting
The sibling item for candlesticks and candelabras may apply if the chandelier is essentially a large candelabra, but the 'Other' item is more appropriate for multi-arm frames.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the chandelier is not designed to be hung from the ceiling in a way that would classify it as furniture; Chapter 94 Note 2 allows seats and beds to be hung, but this does not extend to chandeliers
• If the chandelier includes any electrical wiring or sockets, it would be reclassified under Chapter 85, so verify it is purely non-electrical
• Provide detailed photographs and technical drawings to CBSA to support the classification
