Are these lead and cadmium free?

I don't have the answer to that. We probably should contact the company. Good question. I just know that using glass is safer than using ceramic and glazed products.

They're made in Waterbury, CT. I'm not sure if they contain lead and cadmium but I'm able to microwave them without the pieces becoming too hot to handle. They're very durable. I've knocked them together many times with no chipping or cracking. I love them.

The only information I found was on squidoo.com that said that all of their dinnerware meets the FDA Standards for lead and calcium(?) releases, so it's "perfectly safe". I assume that implies they are not 100% lead and cadmium free, but are minimal. Personally, I'm really happy with them. I ordered them in 4 different colors. Hope that hellps.

As far as I know yes. Did some research and these are suppose to be lead free

This question interested me. Here is the answer I found on Le Creuset's Canadian website: "Is Le Creuset lead and cadmium free? Cadmium and lead are two elements under strict control in the cookware industry. Our position today for the entire production process is to be in compliance with California Proposal 65 which is the most rigid standard in the world for these elements (approx. 10 times lower than "acceptable" limits). Lead is NOT used in our recipes and for cadmium a special anti-acid enamel fritt is used which will not release the cadmium pigment during cooking. Cadmium is used for coloration purposes in achieving bright exterior colours such as Flame and Cherry. The interior enamel which makes contact with food is either sand, white, or black."

Not for sure about being lead free. They are made in China. There was a strong odor when you take out of plastic wrap but it goes away, I think it's just that way from packaging and being sealed. Hope this helps!

They are a lead alloy, most likely lead-antimony-tin. You might want to consider the lead-free version, it will travel farther and in my experience and be more accurate. Plus, you won't have to wash the toxic metallic dust off your hands after use.

I don't know whether it is exactly lead-free. You would need a lab test for this answer if you don't trust the seller.

Per Godinger.com, the crystal on their site has a Prop 65 warning for lead. Contacted them and they state this particular item is LEAD FREE.

I just live chatted with Kitchen Aid and they said that the ceramic pot has tested lead and cadmium "free" and that the product does *not* require a california prop 65 warning. I think that's as close as one can get to being certain that it's lead free before purchasing and testing yourself.

Absolutely yes. I just checked the package label to be certain. Further, I do not know of any jig not made of lead. If there are, the manufacturer would probably point that out.

They are supposed to be lead-free. The manufacturer's website states that they conform to all FDA regulations and California Prop 65 standards.

I recently found out that this company carries a brand of Vitamines that have traces of lead that the government considers "safe" I have not yet confirmed that the ORGANIC line has lead. Might want to research that first. If it is lead free then yes, I used to give these to my 2 yo.

As a chemist I would not count on these as being reasonably pure. I use them as an alternative to lead as weights of high density. You may be able to approach an industrial manufacturer for some samples.

I would guess based on this, yes, it is lead free. "ALL crib mattresses sold in the USA pass the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) which tests for 6 types of phthalates, lead, and other potentially harmful substances. If the mattress components don't pass these tests, they are not on the market today."

Great question. I wasn't aware that it may contain lead. I'll be getting rid of it if that's true.
