Plain-English summary

Pure Allure, of Oceanside, Calif., is recalling approximately 200,000 units of Crystal Innovations metal jewelry components. These items, which include charms, closures, clasps, toggles, and earring sets, were sold at Michaels Stores nationwide from April 2006 to September 2007 for about $5 each. The products were manufactured in China.

The recall is being issued because the metal 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 these products.

Consumers should immediately take these jewelry pieces away from young children and return them to the store where purchased for a full refund.
