In cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, Cost Plus Inc.  issued a voluntary recall of their Moroccan tea glasses this week.

The Oakland-based distributor is prepared to refund the full price of the glasses if they are returned to any Cost Plus or World Market store. The recall is expected to affect about 14,000 units.

According to the announcement, the tea glass exterior coloring contains excessive levels of lead.

Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects even in small amounts.
