Victorian Trading Company of Lenexa, Kan., is recalling about 1,000 tealight holders in the U.S. and Canada.
The diameter of the hole in the top hat is too small, which can allow heat to build up and create cracks in the surface, posing a fire hazard.
The firm has received three reports of cracks in the holder. There are no reports of fire.
The recall affects John Snowball, Esq., Tealight Holders. The tealight holder is a snowball-shaped character with a wire monocle on his right eye, a cigar in his mouth and a black top hat with a yellow band above the brim on his head.
The tealight holder measures 4.5” x 4.5” x 6.” There is a hole in the back of the item to hold the tealight. Clear stickers with Victorian Trading Company logo are on the bottom of the tealight holders.
The holders, manufactured in China, were sold at Victorian Trading Company and Victorian Trading Company Wholesale and online at www.victoriantradingco.com from September 2014 to October 2015 for about $20.
Consumers should immediately stop using the tealight holder and contact the firm for instructions on returning the product for a full refund. The firm is contacting consumers directly.
