Incomplete gold neck chains that had substantially acquired the form of finished neck chains were classifiable as articles of jewellery under Customs Tariff Item 7113 1990, not as gold in semi-manufactured form under Item 7108 1300. Applying Chapter Note 9(a) to Chapter 71 and Rule 2(a) of the General Rules for Interpretation, the Tribunal held that unfinished goods with the essential character of the finished article are to be classified as that finished article. Because the declared classification was accepted, the basis for confiscation under sections 111(d) and 111(m) failed, and the redemption fine and penalty were set aside.
