The sample that you submit, "Rocks" Glass Candle, consists of a scented yellow colored candle poured into a frosted glass container that measures approximately 3-1/2" in height and 2-1/2" in diameter.

The Department of Commerce has determined that petroleum wax candles in the following shapes: tapers, spirals, and straightsided dinner candles; rounds, columns, pillars, votives; and various waxfilled containers are within the scope of the antidumping duty order on petroleum wax candles from China. In our opinion, "Rocks" Glass Candle is within the scope of the antidumping duty order on petroleum wax candles from China. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
