Default Re: Shakudo Pendant

Thanks very much Tang & David.

David, I understand your concern. I would say it's not an issue as the danger with arsenic would be mostly from inhalation or digestion. I suppose if the concentration were high enough in a liquid it could be absorbed through the skin, but this seems remote bound up in the alloy as it is. Also the pendant is designed with the bezel protecting the surface front and back from wear and I doubt it would be worn on bare skin anyway.

Jim
