Libbey Glass of Toledo, Ohio, is recalling about 218.000 Bristol Valley cocktail glasses with sheer rim.
The glasses can break unexpectedly, posing a laceration hazard.
The company has received 16 reports from commercial customers of glasses breaking, including one report of a minor laceration to a restaurant patron when the glass broke during use.
This recall involves Bristol Valley, model 8555SR, cocktail glasses with sheer rims. The glasses are made of clear, colorless glass in a 7.75 ounce cocktail design with a thin rim. The glasses measure about 6¼ inches high, 3¼ inches wide at the base, and 4¼ inches wide at the top. They were sold individually and in 24-piece cartons for commercial users.
The glasses, manufactured in the U.S., were sold through commercial customers for use in food service establishments, at the Libbey Outlet Store in Shreveport, La., and at various independent liquor stores nationwide from January 2013, through November 2013, for between $1 and $4 per glass.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled glasses and return them to the store where purchased for a refund. Commercial customers should contact Libbey Glass to arrange for destruction of the product and receipt of a credit, refund or replacement.
