Children's Metal Charm Bracelets
Published May 23, 2014 · Recall initiated: March 11, 2010
What's the hazard
The bracelets contain high levels of cadmium. Laboratory analysis determined that following a 24-hour incubation in simulated stomach acid, over 20,000 micrograms of cadmium were released from the snowman alone. Cadmium can be toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.
What to do
Consumers should immediately take these charm bracelets away from children and dispose of the jewelry.
