U.P. Fashion Children's Rings Recalled for Excess Lead Content

U.P. Fashion is recalling approximately 1,800 children's rings sold nationwide at dollar stores and discount stores from April 2021 through July 2022 because the metal base contains lead levels exceeding the federal lead content ban.

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 rings contain lead, a high-risk toxicant to young children, violating federal safety standards. Although no illnesses or injuries have been reported, the hazard is significant and affects a vulnerable population; this meets the "risk-of-harm products where injury has not yet been reported" criterion at the High level.

Plain-English summary

U.P. Fashion Corp., of Carlstadt, New Jersey, is recalling children's rings. The rings are gold-colored with a large faux pearl in multiple colors, surrounded by small white crystals on a gold base.

The metal base of the rings contains levels of lead that exceed the federal lead content ban. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health issues.

The recalled rings were sold nationwide at dollar stores and other discount stores from April 2021 through July 2022 for approximately $1 each. About 1,800 units were distributed.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled rings away from children. Contact U.P. Fashion at 201-438-0908 (collect, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. ET Monday through Friday) or email [email protected] for information on how to properly dispose of the rings and receive a full refund. No injuries have been reported.
