The Customs & Excise Department urges people not to wear SE Pendant 0352, which has high radioactivity.
Acting on information from the Department of Health that a pendant for sale was potentially harmful to health, Customs officers have seized 2,835 pendants from a chain store.
Tests found the radioactivity concentrations of thorium-232 and uranium-238 in the pendant were both above the limit recommended by the International Atomic Energy Agency for commodity products.
As the radiation dose from a single pendant can reach up to 60% of the annual skin dose limit recommended, year-long contact with the pendant can result in erythema of the skin. The risk of skin cancer also increases with the duration of contact.
The supplier is recalling the pendants.

The Customs & Excise Department warns consumers not to wear the Quantum Pendant which has an enhanced level of radioactivity.
Tests found the pendant to have thorium-232 and uranium-238 with radioactivity exceeding the limit recommended by the International Atomic Energy Agency.
If the pendant is kept in continuous contact with the skin the radiation dose will amount to 20% of the annual dose limit recommended by the International Commission on Radiological Protection.
The Department of Health said although short-term contact with the pendant will not cause immediate harm to health, wearing it long term will increase the risk of cancer.
Customs officers have seized 10 of the pendants from a supplier.
Last month a similar model was found to be potentially hazardous to health.
