What this means for you

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

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a risk-of-harm product (lead poisoning) where injury has not yet been reported, which aligns with the High severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Crimzon Rose Accessories, of North Providence, R.I., is recalling approximately 6,000 units of children's "Kidsite" necklace and earring sets. The products were sold exclusively at Kmart stores nationwide from October 2001 through December 2006 for about $5. The jewelry features plastic gemstone birthstones, flower-shaped pendants on silver-colored chains, and matching pierced earrings. The packaging displays the birthstone month and "Kidsite" on the front, with "Kmart" printed on the back.

The recall is issued because the jewelry contains high levels of lead. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects. No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled product away from children and return it to any Kmart store to receive one of three free children's jewelry sets. For additional information, consumers can contact Kmart at (800) 659-7026 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday, or visit www.kmart.com.
