A list of folks across the U.S. who do consumer goods testing with the appropriate instrumentation… Stand by!
Red Waechtersbach German Nesting Bowl: 107,500 ppm Lead + 20,600 ppm Cadmium. 90 ppm Lead (& up) is unsafe for kids.
Polar Express official souvenir bell from Whippany, NJ: Lead-free, Cadmium-free, Arsenic-free, Cadmium-free. (Phew!)
Rae Dunn ceramic “Calm” coffee mug. Purchased at Marshall’s: 100 +/- 20 ppm Lead (within safe range for Lead.)
Vintage clear glass small Pyrex casserole: 866 +/- 61 ppm Arsenic. (This is the first time I have found Arsenic in one of these.)
Square Coupe Target Threshold white porcelain appetizer plate: 47 ppm Lead on the food surface. Safe by all standards.
I’ve been presented with the opportunity to officially assume ownership of TWO XRF instruments for $2,000. Can you help?
