Jequirity Bracelet Recall
In December 2011 a recall was issued for bracelets sold at the Eden Project and other retailers across the UK that were made of the highly poisonous beans of the Abrus precatorius plant. The beads could potentially have been dangerous if ingested. The Eden Project offered full refunds for the bracelets, recommending that customers who had bought such bracelets over the past two years returned them.

Famous quotes containing the words bracelet and/or recall:
“A bracelet of bright hair about the bone,
Will he not let us alone,
And think that there a loving couple lies
Who thought that this device might be some way
To make their souls, at the last busy day,
Meet at this grave, and make a little stay?”
—John Donne (1572–1631)
“That doctrine [of peace at any price] has done more mischief than any I can well recall that have been afloat in this country. It has occasioned more wars than any of the most ruthless conquerors. It has disturbed and nearly destroyed that political equilibrium so necessary to the liberties and the welfare of the world.”
—Benjamin Disraeli (1804–1881)
