Can one remote control candles from different sets?

Usually only when the candles come from the same product line and use the same remote signal. Buying everything as one set is the simplest way to control them together.

Does the remote work around furniture?

Most remotes are infrared, so they need to point straight at the candle with nothing in the way. Radio-frequency remotes work from farther away and around objects.
