Understand the issue

The pendant on the necklace contains high levels of lead. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.

The recalled necklaces have pendants shaped as butterflies that are painted in various colors. The pendants hang from a black cord. The necklace's package is blue cardboard with images of flowers and butterflies and the words "Butterfly Necklace" printed on the front and "Item#JA298" on the back.
