FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- November 9, 2007 -- NapaStyle of Napa, California is recalling their Romano Pitchers and Tumblers, because they may contain high levels of leachable lead. No illnesses have been reported to date. The recall was a result of an FDA test that showed that the items may contain lead introduced by the manufacturing process by our supplier.
Consumption of leachable lead from the ceramicware can cause severe health problems; especially in infants, young children and pregnant women. High lead exposures can cause a baby to have low birth weight or be born prematurely, or can result in miscarriage or stillbirth. Lead can cause damage to the central nervous system, resulting in learning disabilities and behavioral disorders that could last a lifetime. Children with lead poisoning may not look or act sick.
The Romano Pitchers and Tumblers were distributed through our retail stores in California and nationwide through our mail order catalog.
These pieces are roughly glazed, with streaks of dark brown clay showing through the variegated green finish.
Product Specs:
* Pitcher, 44 oz., 7 1/2" h.
* Four Tumblers, 145 oz., 4 1/4" h
