    Department of Health Alerts Pennsylvanians About Recall of Children’s Jewelry Set Due to Lead and Cadmium Levels

    January 08, 2025

    Examples of the recalled Yaomiao children’s necklace, ring, and bracelet jewelry sets that come inside a lavender box with “A Special Gift for the Charming You” printed on it.

    Harrisburg, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Health (DOH) 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 breastfeeding.

    “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. “This recall serves as an important reminder to parents and caregivers to get children routinely screened for lead exposure. Early identification of elevated lead levels in children can reduce the possible harms from lead exposure. These simple, routine screenings help prevent more serious harm to children’s development.”

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

    More information about the health impacts of lead can be found on the DOH’s website. 

    Parents and caregivers of children who may have used the recalled jewelry sets should contact their child’s health care provider about getting a blood lead test. 

    The Department of Health shared a health alert notice to communicate this recall among state and local public health agencies, health care providers, hospitals, and emergency management officials.
