43,000 Lenox dishes recalled for fire and burn hazards

Pennsylvania-based Lenox is recalling about 43,000 covered dishes warmed by tea candles set below because they pose fire and burn hazards to users.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission warned Friday flames from the tea candles may rise higher than expected. The CPSC also said a label on the bottom of the dish may smoke when exposed to the flame.

The company has learned of eight associated incidents though no injuries have been reported.

The recall applies to the following dishes:


  • Holiday, SKU #782673.
  • Winter Greetings, SKU #782697.
  • Holiday Gatherings, SKU #782670.
  • Orchard & Bloom, SKU #783368.
  • Butler's Pantry, SKU #783357.
  • Butterfly Meadow, SKU #783362.

The dishes were sold in U.S. stores from October 2007 through December 2007 for about $30 US. The products were manufactured in China and Indonesia.

Consumers should stop using the dishes and return them to the retailer for a refund.
