Michaels Stores is recalling about 28,000 Ashland Glass Vases. The glass vases can break or fracture when a consumer picks them up, posing a laceration hazard.
The firm has received four reports of the vase shattering, causing lacerations to the hands for all four. One person had surgery, two got stitches.
The vase is rectangular and made of clear glass. It is 12 inches tall, 8 inches wide and 2.5 inches deep. The SKU number "425827" and UPC number "6-927619-661665" are printed on a label on the bottom of the vase.
Michaels Arts & Crafts Stores sold the vases from January 2008 through October 2011 for about $20. They were made in China.
Consumers should stop using the vase and return it to a Michaels Arts & Crafts store for a full refund. To avoid the risk of breakage and possible injury, handle the vase with care.
