Vinyl handbags contain harmful amounts of lead

/in /by

I just read an article about the dangerous amount of lead found in vinyl handbags, wallets etc.

For many of us who do not want to buy leather, this is an important warning. Purses and especially wallets are handled often.

Avoid:

PVC
VINYL
POLYVINYL CHLORIDE

The article also said that all handbags have interior tags which state what they are made of. I have often looked for tags on handbags and could not find them. But for now on, I’ll look at fabric and nylon bags…that seems the path.
