['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']

Date: 2025-01-02

The US Consumer Product Safety Commission just announced a recall of children’s jewelry sets containing levels of lead and cadmium that exceed Federal safety regulations.

From the CPSC announcement (emphasis added):

The recalled jewelry sets contain levels of lead that exceed the federal lead content ban and levels of cadmium that are prohibited in children’s products by the Federal Hazardous Substances Act. Lead and cadmium are toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects. [...] This recall involves three Yaomiao-branded children’s jewelry sets. The sets have between three and 12 pieces of jewelry each. The jewelry is silver colored with multicolored gems shaped as a unicorn, a butterfly, a heart, a turtle, a star, or a rainbow with a cloud. Each set comes packaged individually in small plastic bags inside a lavender box with “A Special Gift for the Charming You” printed on it. “Yaomiao” appears on the box’s plastic wrap. [...] Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled jewelry sets, take them away from children and contact LordRoads for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to dispose of the recalled jewelry sets and send a photo of the disposed sets to [email protected]. LordRoads and Amazon are contacting all known purchasers directly.

Roughly 7000 sets were sold (exclusively on Amazon by vendor LordRoads) from January 2022 through March 2024. If anyone in your circle of friends/family has such jewelry, take a quick look at their collection and compare it to the picture above.

Please share this information widely! The CPSC posted announcements to Bluesky and X, so you can repost/quote those if you like; you can also right-click on the image above and use “Save image as...” to pull a copy down to your device for sharing elsewhere.
