What is the hazard with Silver Snake Rings sold via Amazon (2511-0097)?

Silver Snake Rings sold via Amazon (2511-0097) was announced earlier this year, in the "Jewellery - Rings" category. The product presents a serious chemical risk as it contains 86.7% cadmium (867000 mg/kg cadmium) which exceeds the maximum permissible limit. Cadmium accumulates in the body, can damage organs and may cause cancer. Further information on the health effects of cadmium exposure can be accessed on GOV.UK here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/cadmium-properties-incident-management-and-toxicology The product does not meet the requirements of the REACH Regulations 2008. That is the hazard as reported publicly by the firm and the regulator; it does not necessarily mean every unit has failed.
