Concern about the heavy metal cadmium in jewelry grew Tuesday Feb. 2, 2010, as a California environmental group said new testing of adult necklaces and bracelets bought at three leading retailers, including Saks Fifth Avenue and Aeropostale, detected high levels of the toxic material, as much as 75 percent by weight. The teen fashion chain Aeropostale and outlet stores of the upscale Saks Fifth Avenue announced on Thursday Feb. 4, 2010, they are pulling from shelves necklaces that tests showed have high levels of the toxic metal cadmium.
