A sample was submitted with your ruling request. This sample will be returned to you in accordance with your request.

The product, item number W078FA04338, is a decorative glass article. Heart shaped decorations are etched or carved on a standing piece of flat, stained glass. A small glass holder for a candle rests behind the stained glass piece. A small glass mirror stands behind the holder.

The essential character of the product is imparted by the decorative glass piece with the heart shaped designs. The candle holder is ancillary and merely serves to enhance or illuminate the decorative item. The mirror serves to reflect and enhance the decorative piece. The entire product is regarded as a decorative article.
