Requirements breached

Although the label states that the teether is not a necklace and the cord has a knot, the latter can easily be undone, so that it would be perfectly possible for it to coil round a baby's neck, therefore posing a risk of strangulation. In addition, the composition of the iris root and the form of use (sucking) mean that it may become contaminated, which would damage the oral mucosa.
