The affected jewellery is a Dervivea metal ring and earings with Amazon codes B0CT21SWWY (Ring) and B0DHV43HC3 (Earrings). The product presents a 'serious risk chemical risk' as it contains butylphenyl methylpropional, which is prohibited in cosmetic products.

'Owners of the product are advised to contact the distributor they purchased from to request redress. The listing has been removed by the online marketplace (Amazon).' Government guidance on Cadmium explains: 'Following exposure to any chemical, the adverse health affects you may encounter depend on several factors, including the amount to which you are exposed (dose), the way you are exposed, the duration of exposure, the form of the chemical and if you were exposed to any other chemicals. 'Exposure to cadmium for a long period of time may result in damage to the kidneys and bones and may cause cancer. 'If you have any health concerns regarding exposure to cadmium, seek guidance from your GP or contact NHS 111.'
