Children’s jewelry set recalled

The Pennsylvania Department of Health is alerting parents and caregivers about the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s recall of Yaomiao Children’s Jewelry Sets. Lead and cadmium levels that exceed federal safety standards have been found in the jewelry sets. These products may be serious health hazards, especially to children and women who are pregnant or breast-feeding.

“Lead and cadmium are heavy metals that can be harmful if ingested and pose a significant risk to infant and child health,” said Secretary of Health Dr. Debra Bogen.

People who have purchased the jewelry set should dispose of the product immediately.

Photos of any disposed sets can be sent to simlordroadple@163.com. Purchasers can also contact the seller, LordRoads for a full refund.

This recall affects three Yaomiao-branded children’s jewelry sets. Approximately 6,900 sets were sold in the U.S. exclusively online at Amazon.com from January 2022 through March 2024 for between $8 and $21, depending on the set.

The sets have between three and 12 pieces of jewelry. 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 colored box with the words “A Special Gift for the Charming You” printed on it. “Yaomiao” appears on the box’s outer plastic wrap.

DOH maintains a toll-free lead information hotline (1-800-440-LEAD) to provide information about lead poisoning prevention, testing, follow-up, and local resources.
