A leading supermarket chain has issued a product recall for an item of jewellery - amid warnings of a chemical risk. Sainsbury’s has issued a recall notice for its Beeline three pack of silver stud earrings due to them containing a ‘higher than acceptable’ level of nickel.
The retailer says the levels of nickel release pose a ‘chemical risk’ to customers and is urging people not to wear the jewellery. People are being asked to return the earrings to their nearest store where a full refund will be issued.
A spokesperson for Sainsbury’s said: “Sainsbury's is supporting its partner Beeline who is recalling its three pack of stud earrings branded accessories. The earrings contain above the legal limit of nickel which can cause sensitisation.
