13th April 2023 - SAFETY RECALL NOTICE
Dear Retailer
We are writing to let you know that we are voluntarily recalling certain Crystal Art Silver Picture Frame Kits that were sold by us in the UK & EU between May 2022 and March 2023.
Please see Appendix 1 (attached) for details, images and batch numbers of the affected products. The batch number can be located in the bottom right hand corner on the reverse of the packaging.
Our team has identified that the silver picture frames in these kits have a lead content that exceeds the limit as defined by EN-71-3 regulations.
With the safety of our customers at the forefront of our minds, we are conducting a replacement of the frame. No injuries have been reported.
Our records show that you have purchased at least one of these products from us. We would now like to offer you guidance to ensure the safety of your customers.
