Plain-English summary
Pier 1 Imports of Fort Worth, Texas, is recalling Footed Glass Floater Bowl candleholders. The recall involves approximately 65,800 units sold nationwide through Pier 1 Imports retail stores and online from March 2002 through the beginning of October 2003 for about $12 each. The candleholders were made in China and are intended for use with floating candles. They measure about 5-1/4 inches in height with a 9-inch diameter bowl and a 2-1/2 inch diameter base. The price sticker on the bottom of the candleholder reads "SKU 1920833."
The recall was issued because the base of the candleholder can unexpectedly fall off, causing the glass bowl or base to break. The broken glass can cause cuts. Pier 1 has received nine reports of the glass base separating from the bowl, resulting in seven cuts to consumers.
