July 20, 2010: Tween Recalls Children's Jewelry
The U.S.
Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), in cooperation with Tween Brands Inc.,
on July 14, 2010, announced a voluntary recall of about 137,000 children’s
Metal Necklaces, Bracelets and Earrings because the jewelry contains high levels
of cadmium. Although there have been no reported injuries, cadmium is toxic if
ingested by children and can cause health issues.
The
jewelry was sold at Justice and Limited Too stores , and online at www.shopjustice.com from November 2008 through
February 2010. Consumers should
immediately take the recalled jewelry away from children and stop using
recalled products.
This
recall involves 19 different styles of children's metal necklaces, bracelets
and earrings. Styles and shapes of
the jewelry include hearts, heart locks, butterflies, cupcakes, peace
signs and crowns. Some jewelry contains the words "Best," "Friends,"
or "Forever," and/or "BFF." Only style numbers listed below
are included in this recall. The style number is included on the jewelry's packaging.
