Toxic Metal Found In Jewelry From Ross, Nordstrom Rack & Papaya

You may want to be aware of this!

If you've purchased jewelry from Ross, Nordstrom Rack or Papaya, the jewelry may contain the toxic metal cadmium according to new test results.

When an analysis was done for the nonprofit Center for Environmental Health, jewelry sold with women's dresses and shirts was nearly pure cadmium.

Exposure to cadmium can cause cancer and reproductive harm.

California outlawed cadmium in children's jewelry.

But, now laws address cadmium in adult jewelry.

The center decided to check those products and lab testing found 31 adult jewelry items purchased from retail stores were at least 40 percent cadmium!

Most of the tainted items were sold at Ross which has more than 1,400 stores in 38 states.

Ross stated that they were committed to protecting its customers and addressed the issue with the supplier.

As for Papaya, they said that it considers cadmium in its products a serious problem and they operate more than 100 retail locations nationwide.

Nordstrom spokeswoman is reaching out to these vendors as well and making thema ware of the situation to get more information on these items.
