LEAD

The Conran Shop issued a recall of wooden dining tables because the lacquer paint contains lead in excess of federal standards.  The recalled wooden tables have a table top wrapped in brass.  The brass has been coated with zinc to give it a green patina, and then coated with a clear matte lacquer.  The tables are about 78 inches long, 36 inches wide and 29 inches tall and have four legs made of teak wood.  The table top is made of acacia wood and has either four or six panels of zinc-patinated brass nailed to it.  The tables were sold in New York from August 2009 to July 2011.  The tables were manufactured in India.

Consumers are advised to immediately stop using the recalled table and contact The Conran Shop for a full refund and to arrange for the table to be picked up.  The Conran Shop is contacting consumers directly.  The Conran Shop can be contacted at 866-444-9668 or online at pondicherry@conran.com.
