Disclaimers For Swarovski Product.

Sunday, December 2, 2007

Disclaimers (This article i cut it from www.positivelycharming.com)


Swarovski Crystals

I wrote to Swarovski to inquire about the lead content I had read was in their crystals. Here is what they had to say (quoted with permission) :

"Recently, there has been an increased regulatory focus on potential human exposure to lead from various consumer products, including jewelry. In 2006, the California Attorney General settled a lawsuit brought in his state alleging exposure to lead from jewelry. The court approved settlement agreement as well as the later legislatively enacted Californian AB 1681 established limits for lead in metals and several other components, with stricter standards for jewelry intended for children 6 and younger. Significantly, in recognition of the limited risk of availability of lead from crystal, the settlement agreement standards as incorporated under California AB 1681 allows the continued use of crystal without limitation in jewelry not intended for children. For children 6 or younger, up to 1 gram of crystal may be used in such jewelry. Swarovski crystals also meet the ASTM F963-03 standard on lead availability for toys.

Crystal has unique properties. While made with lead, the crystal manufacturing process creates a matrix which greatly retards the mobility of lead. By contrast, lead in other materials such as unplated metal containing lead may be available for surface exposures. Swarovski believes that the use of their products poses no significant risk to human health."


Despite this statement, I still feel it would be safer for children not to wear or handle items created with Swarovski components, and I would like to request that pregnant or nursing women refrain from wearing jewelry made with these items for long periods of time, as well. If at some point in the future I begin creating designs for children & infants, I will limit the number of Swarovski components used in those items to the 1 gram standard set by the California ruling. I do not live in California, but since that state has some of the strictest health regulations that I am aware of in the U.S. regarding many things, I will observe those regulations in regards to jewelry.
