Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary
Tiffany and Company is recalling about 47 Paloma Rattles. The product is a 2.5-inch diameter ring consisting of nine linked sterling-silver balls that contain small beads. The recall was initiated because seams on the rattle can open during use, releasing the small round beads. These beads pose an aspiration hazard to young children, and the breakage can create ragged edges on the ring, posing a laceration hazard.
The recall is being conducted as a precaution based on routine periodic product safety testing. CPSC and Tiffany and Company have received no reports of injuries or incidents of the product breaking in actual use.
Tiffany and Company sold these rattles in its stores, catalogs, and on its website from January 2005 through March 2006 for about $195. The recall specifically involves rattles sold in March 2006. Consumers should take these rattles away from babies and return the product to Tiffany and Company for a full refund or a store credit. Customers can contact Tiffany and Company at (800) 464-5000 between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday for more information.
