Chandeliers Recalled Due to Injury Hazard

WASHINGTON - Sea Gull Lighting is recalling 34 versions of its chandeliers because they have been falling from the ceiling.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission says the chandelier's screw collar that holds it to the ceiling mount can break. That can cause the chandelier to fall and injure bystanders.

Sea Gull Lighting has received four reports of its chandeliers falling from the ceiling. Approximately $1,600 in property damage has been reported. No injuries have been reported.

This recall involves seven collections of Sea Gull Lighting chandeliers including: Brandywine, Laurel Leaf, New Verona, Newport, Parkview, Roslyn and Somerton.

The recalled chandeliers were sold at Lowe's, HomeDepot.com, Amazon.com and other retailers nationwide from November 2006 through August 2013. The chandeliers cost between $250 and $750.

The CPSC says people should not go into the immediate area under the chandeliers. Contact Sea Gull Lighting immediately to receive a free replacement for chandeliers that have fallen, including shipping, or for free replacement hardware to repair the chandelier and instructions on being reimbursed for the full cost of the installation.
